Simulator Debug Features Table - Heading Descriptions

Feature Feature Description*
Device Device has either yellow or green light support in MPLAB® X IDE.
Prog/Data BPs Maximum number of Program and Data Memory breakpoints.
X Total: X breakpoints are shared between program and data memory.
Data BP Access Break on data fetch, data write or either data fetch or write.
Tuples (ANDed BPs) Maximum number of Tuples (ANDed breakpoints). A tuple consists of one program memory breakpoint ANDed with one data memory breakpoint. Breakpoint 1 AND breakpoint 2 must occur at the same time before a program halt.
Sequenced BPs Maximum number of sequences and sequenced breakpoints.
X/Y: X is the maximum number of a breakpoint sequences. Y is the maximum number of breakpoints in the sequence.
A breakpoint sequence is a list of breakpoints that execute but do not halt until the last breakpoint is executed.
Range BPs Break on a range of program or data memory addresses.
Table R/W BPs Break on a table read or write.
Pass Counter Break after a specified number of passes occur, specified by a counter.
Clock Switch Break Break on clock switching
Sleep Wake Break Break on wake from Sleep
Stack Over/Under Break Break on stack overflow/underflow
WDT Timeout Break Break on Watchdog Timer timeout
Stopwatch Use the stopwatch with breakpoints to time code execution. Stopwatch uses 1-2 breakpoint resources
Trace Simulator Trace
Simulation speed is reduced by up to 50% when using trace.
