Design and Implementation of a CPU Chip Hardware Test and Debug Platform

A scheme of CPU chip hardware test and debug platform is presented in this paper. Program test approach is adopted in the design. This platform implements the operating environment of CPU chip. It can control the numbers of CPU chip master clock and get the contents of any register in CPU chip, while CPU chip is running. The platform is not only beneficial to the design and debugging of CPU chip, but also convenient to a teaching system of CPU chip design and an embedded system developing platform.
