TIME LIMITS TRANSFERRED BY A MONITORING CHALLENGE OF A MICRO-PROCESSER

摘要

The invention concerns a method for transmitting digital messages through output terminals (22) of a monitoring circuit (18) integrated to a microprocessor (12), said messages representing specific events occurring upon the execution of instructions by the microprocessor comprising the step which consists, after or before transmitting at least one specific message associated with a particular event in transmitting a correlation message including an identifier of said specific message and a counter for the number of instructions executed by the microprocessor between the instruction associated with the transmission of said specific message and the instruction associated with a selected previous message. The invention also concerns a device for transmitting digital messages.
