A new generation of integrated logic analyzers for today’s FPGAs
SUMP3 is a new generation of the SUMP2 ILA (Integrated Logic Analyzer) that was first introduced in 2016 by Black Mesa Labs.
Like SUMP2, SUMP3 uses real-time hardware RLE (Run Length Encoding) compression to potentially store millions of clocked time samples in just a few thousand RAM cells (mileage may vary).
SUMP3 is designed with 2nm FPGAs with abundant RAM in mind. Even today’s 16nm AMD/Xilinx VU9P with 3 chiplets has over 2000 1Kx36 BRAMs, 1000 8Kx36 UltraRAMs and 2 million D flip-flops.
The Verilog RTL and Python GUI software for SUMP3 is available on GitHub here.
