The prevalent use case of CombiProbe for TriCore is DAP Streaming, introduced by Lauterbach in 2017.
The CombiProbe:
Has 512 MByte of trace memory
Supports debug port type DAPWide and DAP4
Supports a high clock rate of the debug port (up to 160 MHz)
These key features make it a perfect fit to support DAP Streaming for the AURIX™ TriCore™ microcontrollers.
In April 2023, Lauterbach introduced the AUTO26 Debug Cable V3. Thanks to its improved design, the V3 cable combined with a suitable PowerDebug module (e.g., PowerDebug PRO, PowerDebug E40, or PowerDebug X50) offers an additional configuration to be used for DAP Streaming.

DAP Streaming with Debug Cable for TriCore AURIX
Nevertheless, CombiProbe for TriCore is still required for:
DAP Streaming using older Power Debug Modules (e.g., Power Debug Interface USB 3.0, PowerDebug II).
Correlation with Mixed-Signal Probe
Connected to port B of a CombiProbe 2, a Mixed-Signal Probe can be used to record digital and analog signals, which can be correlated to the recorded program flow. This way it is easy to verify signal-timings which are initiated by the application software, or to calculate the power consumption of specific program parts.
