and S2, after the initialization is completed, performing read-write operation on the system memory according to the debugging signal, and judging whether the read-write operation of the JTAG module of the chip to be debugged is normal or not according to the completion state of the read-write operation.
The embodiment of the invention initializes the system of the chip to be debugged and the JTAG module in the chip to be debugged, ensures the stability of the system clock, enables the system to normally and stably run, and is beneficial to improving the debugging reliability of the JTAG module; and after the initialization of the chip to be debugged is completed, the embodiment of the invention carries out read-write operation on the system memory according to the debugging signal, judges whether the read-write operation of the chip to be debugged is normal or not by reading the completion state of the read-write operation, and can accurately find the design problem of incorrect logic processing, thereby effectively improving the debugging efficiency, smoothly carrying out IP function verification on later application and being beneficial to accelerating the progress of a project.
As a specific implementation manner of the embodiment of the present invention, initializing a system of a chip to be debugged and a JTAG module in the chip to be debugged specifically includes:
initializing a system of a chip to be debugged through a simulation environment, and calibrating a high-speed clock of the chip to be debugged to an expected value;
referring to fig. 2, an initialization process of a chip to be debugged according to an embodiment of the present invention is schematically illustrated. It should be noted that, after the system of the chip to be debugged is initialized in the simulation environment, the high-speed clock of the chip to be debugged is calibrated to reach the expected value, so that the stability of the system clock can be effectively ensured, the system can normally operate, and the reliability of debugging is improved.
Resetting the state of a JTAG module of the chip to be debugged according to the debugging signal, and reading the equipment ID number of the chip to be debugged;
after the initialization of the system is completed, in order to verify whether the processing logic part of the IDCODE instruction by the JTAG module of the chip to be debugged is correct, the embodiment of the present invention is implemented by reading and verifying the device ID number of the chip to be debugged, specifically: according to the requirement that the RISC-V JTAG clock is required to be 12 times smaller than the system clock, frequency division is carried out on the system clock, and a TCK signal is output to a JTAG module of a chip to be debugged; resetting the JTAG module state of a chip to be debugged, pulling up a TMS signal and maintaining for a period of time, and enabling the JTAG module to enter a Test _ Logic _ Reset state according to the description of the JTAG protocol state machine principle; and continuously operating the TMS signal to enable the JTAG state to sequentially enter a Run _ Test/Idle- > Select DR _ Scan- > Select IR _ Scan- > Capture IR- > Shift IR state, and sending an IDCODE instruction by using the TDI signal to read the equipment ID number of the chip to be debugged.
