16-pin Custom Arm (1.27mm) Debug Adapter
This debug adapter is used to connect the BlueBox to the Cortex-M based target. It’s used to connect to the embedded target featuring a 16-pin 1.27 mm pitch target debug connector with the custom Arm pinout.
The debug adapter connects to the 25 cm 40-pin ribbon cable coming from the BlueBox and to the target debug connector on the other side.
The following pinout is valid on the target side:

16-pin custom Arm pinout
Signal Direction is described from the BlueBox perspective.
When initially connecting the BlueBox to a target, ensure the debug adapter pinout matches the Target connector to avoid potential hardware failure. |
The debug adapter features resettable fuses on pins 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 and 13. These protect debug signals against overcurrent. These fuses cycle back to a conductive state after the excessive current fades away. The adapter connects to the target via a 16-pin 1.27mm connector, for example Samtec FFSD-08-01-N. A target should feature a matching part, for example Samtec FTSH-108-01-F-DV-K.
Make sure this adapter fits on your target connector - check Cross Table. |
