Processor-in-the-loop testing with TPT
For PIL-testing, TPT is connected via an interface to the Universal Debug Engine (UDE) by PLS or to Trace32 by Lauterbach.
Alternatively PIL testing is possible using Simulink or TargetLink. In this case it is MATLAB that handles the communication between PC and the PIL board.
