3.6.4 PIC32 Instruction Trace Connections

PIC32 Instruction Trace is only available for PIC32 MCU devices. Also, only some

PIC32 MCU devices have the trace feature. Consult your device data sheet for details.

To use this trace, you will need the following hardware:

• PIC32 Plug-In Module (PIM) containing a device that supports trace and a trace

port

• PIC32 Trace Interface Kit containing a 12-inch trace cable and a trace adapter

board

If you do not have a trace cable, you can use the logic probes. Connect them as below.

To use the PIC32 Instruction Trace feature, see Section 7.3 “PIC32 Instruction

Trace”.
