The current design incorporates small debug related design changes or variations from the reference design. These changes or variations can include:

  • Debug core RTL instantiation changes
  • Debug core insertion changes
  • Both debug core related RTL changes and insertion changes

To insert, delete, or modify debug cores to an existing design that has been implemented, open the synthesized DCP or design, and use the debug insertion flow. Details on the debug insertion flow can be found in Using the Netlist Insertion Debug Probing Flow.

You can also modify existing debug cores or instantiate new debug cores into your existing RTL design. The Incremental Compile flow reuses placement and routing from the reference design along with the new debug related modifications. Details on the debug instantiation flow can be found in HDL Instantiation Debug Probing Flow Overview.
