ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for capturing data transmitted over of a plurality of bidirectional communication buses is provided. The apparatus comprises a plurality of trace engines, each trace engine having a trace analyzer and a central processing unit connected together with a bus. Each one of the trace engines is connected to another trace engine, so that all of the trace analyzers within the trace engines are synchronized to a common clock. The synchronization to a single common clock allows all of the data captured by the plurality of trace engines to be analyzed or used together.
