Abstract
A system having multiple on-chip logic analyzers (OCLA), each on-chip logic analyzer includes one or more word recognizers. The word recognizer includes a great deal of flexibility for the user, while being capable of implementation with very few gates. The word recognizer includes a Boolean logic portion in which a plurality of conditions can be dynamically segregated into a mutually exclusive set of groups. The conditions in each group are combined by means of a single Boolean function that is programmable. The resultant term (or product) from each group is combined with those of the other groups by a fixed selection of Boolean functions. The output of the Boolean logic section is provided to a counter/timer.
