Probing Solutions Criteria for Selection Why is Probing Important? Your debugging tools perform three important tasks: probing your target system, acquiring data, and analyzing data. Data acquisition and analysis tools are only as effective as the physical interface to your target system. Use the following criteria to see how your probing measures up. How to Determine Your Requirements To determine what probing method is best to use you need to take the following into consideration: • The nu
