Systems and methods for streaming waveform data during emulation run

A system comprising:

• a non-transitory emulation memory configured to emulate memory functionality of one or more memory components of a device under test (DUT) being emulated by an emulation computer;
• a processor configured to:
• allocate a first portion of the emulation memory for storing waveform data captured by one or more probes;
• instantiate a plurality of streaming probes formed by corresponding dynamic netlists and configured to capture one or more non-transitory internal signals from a plurality of nets within the DUT;
• during runtime of emulating the DUT:
• capture through the plurality of streaming probes the one or more non-transitory internal signals including edge transitions of the one or more non-transitory internal signals within the DUT;
• transmit through the plurality of streaming probes the one or more non-transitory internal signals to the first portion of the emulation memory to be stored as one or more waveform data records;
• and
• in response to the processor receiving an upload request for the one or more non-transitory internal signals:
• transmit the one or more waveform data records to a workstation computer.

A computer readable non-transitory medium containing one or more computer instructions, which when executed by a processor cause the processor to:

• allocate a first portion of an emulation memory for storing waveform data captured by one or more probes;
• instantiate a plurality of streaming probes formed by corresponding dynamic netlists and configured to capture one or more non-transitory internal signals from a plurality of nets within a device under test (DUT) being emulated by an emulation computer;
• during runtime of emulating the DUT:
• capturing through the plurality of streaming probes the one or more non-transitory internal signals within the DUT;
• transmit through the plurality of steaming probes the one or more non-transitory internal signals to the first portion of the emulation memory to be stored as one or more waveform data records;
• and
• in response to the processor receiving an upload request for the captured one or more non-transitory internal signals:
• transmit the one or more waveform data records to a workstation computer.
