3.1. Using Trace Analyzer

Trace Analyzer is provided by Code Composer Studio (CCS) to enable non-intrusive debug and analysis of system activity.

The TI target device sends data about the target's actions over a dedicated port. A Trace Receiver, JTAG emulator, or Embedded Trace Buffer (ETB) must be connected to or embedded within the device.

Many different kinds of system activity can be monitored, such as function duration, reads and writes to memory, and cache stalls. More information can be found by searching for Trace Analyzer and Function Profiling in the CCS help. Also consult your device documentation.
