Abstract

The invention relates to the field of integrated circuits, in particular to a bus monitoring module and method suitable for an AHB protocol. The bus monitoring module comprises a plurality of channels, a plurality of master control devices and slave devices on a bus are respectively connected with the input end of each channel, and the outputs of all the channels are gathered to the interrupt management unit; the interrupt management unit serves as an output end of the bus monitoring module and is connected with the main control equipment, each channel comprises a monitoring selection unit, an access filtering unit and a counting comparison unit, an address range is set for each channel, and the address ranges of the channels are not repeated. According to the invention, interruption can be generated when specific bus access reaches a certain number of times, and control modes and debugging methods of the processor are enriched.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of integrated circuits, in particular to a bus monitoring module and monitoring method suitable for the AHB protocol. Background technique [0002] The MCU chip is usually based on the bus architecture, and the main control device such as the processor / DMA accesses the slave device such as the memory / communication module through the bus to realize general-purpose computing, real-time control and other functions. The bus is the interface bridge between the master device and the slave device. Analyzing the working status and operating efficiency of the bus can provide ideas and basis for debugging and optimizing the entire chip. [0003] The AHB (Advanced High Performance Bus) protocol of ARM Company is a popular bus protocol in the industry. This protocol defines the interface signals for bus access, control timing and other content. Multiple master devices and multiple slave devices can be mounted on the AHB bus, an...
