For the second year in a row, Byte Paradigm has conducted an online survey to understand the role of using a ‘live’ prototype for testing and debugging embedded systems. This year, we paid special attention to the equipment that the electronic engineer finds in the lab or on the desk to efficiently test and debug embedded systems. Results show that using a prototype is widely seen as a way to speed up debugging and that digital pattern generators are gaining success for the generation of digital input stimuli.
