6.3.1.4. External Instrumentation

If your design does not have enough on-chip memory to store trace buffers, you can use an external logic analyzer for debugging. External instrumentation is also necessary if you require any of the following:

  • Data collection with pin loading
  • Complex triggers
  • Asynchronous data capture

Intel provides procedures to connect external verification devices such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and protocol analyzers to your FPGA.
