Abstract:
A system, such as a system-on-chip, has a non-debug domain and a debug domain. The debug domain has a debug framework that enables a debugger driven, non-debug domain system reset. The system includes a reset control unit, and a debug trigger mechanism that includes a debug trigger interface (DTI) connected to the reset control unit. The DTI is configured to trigger the reset control unit to reset the non-debug domain. The DTI may further be configured to monitor a status of the non-debug domain system reset.
