Abstract
An embodiment of an electronic system includes a first electronic module, a second electronic module, a first debug circuit integrated with the first electronic module, a second debug circuit integrated with the second electronic module, and a communications interface between the first debug circuit and the second debug circuit. The first debug circuit is configured to determine that a triggering event has occurred, and to produce a first cross trigger signal on the communications interface in response to determining that the triggering event has occurred. The second debug circuit is configured to detect the first cross trigger signal on the communications interface, and to perform an action in response to detecting the first cross trigger signal.
