Abstract

An event data acquisition device has a data segment multiplexer to receive data segments corresponding to processor events generated with a test device, and a memory component to maintain the data segments in an order that they are received from the test device. A control component of the event data acquisition device pauses the test device processor when the memory component exceeds a threshold number of stored data segments. An event data packet component generates event data packets where an individual data packet includes data segments having information for a particular processor event.
