Hardware Security Module (HSM) support

The Universal Debug Engine supports the Hardware Security Module (HSM) of state-of-the-art automotive microcontrollers that are used in safety and security critical applications. The HSM is implemented for example in:

TriCore™ AURIX™ from Infineon
Stellar from STMicroelectronics
MPC57xx Power Architecture™ devices from NXP
SPC5 Power Architecture™ devices from STMicroelectronics

The HSM is treated as a further core and can be fully controlled by UDE. Furthermore, joint debugging of the Host/HSM cores and FLASH programming are possible.

Debugging on C/C++ source code level or assembler level
Debug synchronization (multicore run-control) with main cores of host SoC
FLASH programming of HSM code and data into dedicated HSM FLASH

The UDE provides trace support for devices where the HSM is connected to the on-chip trace system. The actual trace functions available depend on the specific hardware implementation.
