Nexus is an increasingly widely used IEEE standard for debug of processor and digital systems architectures. It provides for a range of debug features and is supported by many debug tool vendors. This presentation will address the Nexus standard and its capabilities and present approaches to architectural implementation and integration of Nexus in several types of systems, including single processor, multiple processor, and systems debug of multiple processors and buses for integrated system-level debug of complex architectures. The presentation also will address specifics of Nexus IP and architectures that have been developed by Freescale.
