Percepio Detect 2025.2 Makes Firmware Freezes Visible

Nov 24, 2025

New Percepio Detect 2025.2 release delivers faster debugging, smaller core dumps, expanded IAR Embedded Workbench® and Arm support, and TaskMonitor for automatic anomaly detection. Percepio Detect builds on Percepio’s self-hosted observability platform, offering unlimited on-device monitoring with “security-camera-style” trace capture that records only when unusual events occur.

Naming your kernel objects

Jun 24, 2025

When using Percepio Tracealyzer and TraceRecorder, you may have noticed that thread names show up automatically, while other kernel objects (like queues or semaphores) are only displayed as hexadecimal numbers. But in the demo traces, all kernel objects have proper...

Multicore Tracing on FreeRTOS 11 and TI AM62x

Nov 19, 2024

FreeRTOS 11 introduced symmetric multi-processing (SMP) support in the mainline kernel, meaning a single FreeRTOS kernel is managing multiple processor cores. Percepio Tracealyzer has supported FreeRTOS for many years and we have now verified the support FreeRTOS 11, including SMP systems.

Crafting A Flight Computer From Scratch

Jan 17, 2024

In the late summer of 2021, a small, team of electronics students at the Technical University of Munich faced a challenge – to construct their very first in-house designed flight computer entirely from scratch. Fortunately, Tracealyzer was there to help.

Tracealyzer 4.8.2 Is Out

Dec 6, 2023

Tracealyzer version 4.8.2 has just been released. This version mainly fixes bugs, such as custom state machine models not being remembered on trace reload, and eliminates a number of compiler warnings in the Recorder source code.
