ULINKpro Debug and Trace Unit

The Keil ULINKpro Debug and Trace Unit connects your PC's USB port to your target system (via a JTAG, Cortex Debug, or Cortex Debug+ETM connector). It allows you to program, debug, and analyze your applications using its unique streaming trace technology.

ULINKpro, together with MDK-ARM, provides extended on-the-fly debug capabilities for Cortex-M devices. You are able to control the processor, set breakpoints, and read/write memory contents, all while the processor is running at full speed. High-Speed data and instruction trace are streamed directly to your PC enabling you to analyze detailed program behaviour.

The unique streaming trace capabilities of ULINKpro delivers sophisticated analysis features such as:

• Complete Code Coverage information about your program's execution ensures thorough application testing and verification
• Performance Analysis using the Execution Profiler and Performance Analyzer enable you to identify program bottlenecks, optimize your application, and to isolate problems
• Streaming instruction trace requires the target device to have ETM (Embedded Trace Macrocell)
