A system and method are disclosed to trace memory in a hardware emulator. In one aspect, a first Random Access Memory is used to store data associated with a user design during emulation. At any desired point in time, the contents of the first Random Access Memory are captured in a second Random Access Memory. After the capturing, the contents of the second Random Access Memory are copied to a visibility system. During the copying, the user design may modify the data in the first Random Access Memory while the captured contents within the second Random Access Memory remain unmodifiable so that the captured contents are not compromised. In another aspect, different size memories are in the emulator to emulate the user model. Larger memories have their ports monitored to reconstruct the contents of the memories, while smaller memories are captured in a snapshot RAM. Together the two different modes of tracing memory are used to provide visibility to the user of the entire user memory.

A system and method are disclosed for communicating in a programmable core. The programmable core is within a single integrated circuit and is divided into multiple independent sub-cores. The sub-cores are coupled together using a multiplexer based network. In another aspect, the multiplexer-based network includes multiplexers associated with some of the sub-cores for sending data and demultiplexers associated with other sub-cores for receiving data. In yet another aspect, a clock is included in the multiplexer-based network for synchronizing communication between the multiplexers and demultiplexers.

A system and method are disclosed for generating triggers within a hardware emulator. The system allows for dynamic reconfiguration of the trigger generation scheme during emulation. In one aspect, input probe signals are received on an address port to a memory from an integrated circuit within the emulator. The memory outputs from a data port, data, which is addressed, at least in part, by the input probe signals. The data output from the data port may be sent through further combinatorial logic or directly connected to a logic analyzer and represents trigger information. In another aspect, the trigger generation scheme may be reconfigured dynamically during emulation. For example, where the memory is a dual-port RAM, an emulation host can write to the memory to perform the reconfiguration.

Aspects of the present invention are directed to converting non-oscillatory combinational loops into acyclic circuits. Combinational loops may be modeled as state-holding elements where non-oscillatory loops are broken using edge-sensitive latches. In addition to providing a way to model combinational loops originally consisting only of gates (i.e., without originally including any state-holding elements), loops that have paths through user latches may also be converted. The presented methodology may be used with both small and large loops.

A tool for emulation systems that obtains the state values for only discrete partitions of a circuit design. When a partition is being emulated, the emulation system obtains the input values for the specified partition at each clock cycle and the state values for the specified partition at intervals. Using the state and input values with a software model of the specified circuit design partition, the tool calculates the state values for the partition at every clock cycle. The software model may correspond to the partitioning information used to implement the circuit design across multiple configurable logic element devices, such as FPGAs. Thus, each software model may correspond to the portion of a circuit design emulated on a discrete FPGA integrated circuit.
