winIDEA XCP Master
IDE, Debug and Trace Tool - Debug over XCP
Implementation of the ASAM standard
The ASAM standard AE MCD-1 XCP SW-Debug (released Nov 2017) in winIDEA defines the concurrent use of both measurement/calibration software and debugger software through a common target hardware interface. The latter is provided as a Plug-on Device (POD) by the measurement/calibration (MC) tool vendor (or from any provider that implements an XCP Slave according to the standard).
The POD connects via a debug interface (e.g., DAP, JTAG) to the target ECU. The communication between host computer and POD is performed via XCP over Ethernet. An XCP Slave running on the POD is scheduling the concurrent use of both worlds, measurement/calibration and debugging.
In this setup, winIDEA is an XCP Master running on the host computer. Instead of sending low-level debug commands directly to the target, winIDEA encapsulates those in the form of XCP commands, which are sent to the XCP Slave on the POD for further processing.
To operate as XCP Master, a winIDEA Pro Edition license is required, using the TASKING License Manager (TLM).
The debugger software supports almost all winIDEA features provided in a similar winIDEA/BlueBox configuration such as debug, flash, on-chip trace etc.
Currently winIDEA XCP Master supports Infineon AURIX TC2xx, TC3xx, and Power Architecture MPC5xxx.
