In Atmel Studio, the Trace is provided on a plug-in basis. This means that different plugins separate from the core of Atmel Studio will be the provider of the different graphics view to visualize Trace.
In the realm of the Trace, there is some terminology that describes the different Trace sources that a device and tool combination supports. These high-level source names are mapped to different architecture specific Trace sources.
