Comment on Lost Techniques: Bond-out CPUs and In Circuit Emulation by Alphatek

Create a special chip, often called a bond-out chip.
You replaced your microprocessor with the expensive bond-out chip and connected it to your very expensive in-circuit emulator.
In fact, the history of the 8051 notes that they developed the bond-out chip first.
For example, the Lauterbach ICE-68300 here could take a bond-out chip or a regular chip, although it would be missing features if you didn’t have the special chip.
In any event, on chip debugging or real in-circuit emulation, it sure makes life easier.
