Table 36-1. Encoding of RAM Bits in Trace Mode Packet Format
RAM[1:0] RAM
0 Level 2 lower 256kB RAM
1h Level 2 upper 256kB RAM
2h Peripherals under PCR1
3h Peripherals under PCR3
Table 36-2. Encoding of Status Bits in Trace Mode Packet Format
STAT[1:0] Status
0 Normal entry CPU1
1h Normal entry other Master
2h Normal entry CPU2
3h Overflow of the dedicated FIFO
In the event of a FIFO overflow, an overflow will be signaled in the status bits of the next transmitted
packet of that particular FIFO. The last entry in the FIFO will not be overwritten by the new data.

SIZE[1:0] Write/Read Size
0 8 bit
1h 16 bit
2h 32 bit
3h 64 bit

The packet will be split up into several subpackets when transmitted over the RTP port pins depending on
the port width configured. The port width is configured with bits PW[1:0] in the RTPGLBCTRL register
(Section 36.3.1). For certain port width configurations and write/read sizes, the number of bits in a packet
does not exactly match the port width for the last subpacket. The remaining bits will be filled with zeros.
