To exploit the development system with a media-processor as soon as possible, the co-development and co-validation of them is very important. We describe the co-development of a media-processor and its source-level debugger, which is necessary to develop multimedia systems. Even through a real chip is available, it takes a long time to validate the functionality of the source-level debugger. Here in this paper, we have adopted hardware emulation for a fast development and validation before a processor is fabricated.
