Detailed Features
Fully compatible with the Black Magic Probe, the features are identical:
(following is a copy of Black Magic Probe's webpage)
- Aimed at ARM Cortex based microcontrollers.
- Allows direct connection to the targeted processors JTAG interface. Alternatively, you may use the ARM Serial Wire Debug protocol as well.
- Full debugging functionality is provided. This includes: watchpoints, flash memory breakpoints, memory and register examination, flash memory programming, etc.
- Multiple targets on a single JTAG scan chain is supported.
- Interface to the host computer is a standard USB CDC ACM device (a virtual serial port), which does not require special drivers on Linux.
- Implements the GDB extended remote debugging protocol for seamless integration with the GNU debugger and other GNU development tools.
- Implements USB DFU class for easy firmware upgrades (as updates become available).
- Windows, Linux and Mac environments supported.
This board allows you to:
- Load your application into the target processor Flash memory or RAM.
- Single step through your program.
- Run your program in real-time with halt on demand.
- Examine and modify CPU registers and memory.
- Obtain a call stack backtrace.
- Set up to 6 hardware assisted breakpoints.
- Set up to 4 hardware assisted read, write or access watchpoints.
- Set unlimited software breakpoints when executing your application from RAM.
