38-pin Mictor Low Voltage Arm Parallel Debug Adapter
This debug adapter is used to connect the iC5000 and the iC5700 BlueBox to the Cortex-A, the Cortex-R, the Arm7 and the Arm9 based target featuring debug interface operating at voltages below 3.3V. Its operating voltage range is 1.65V - 3.6V. It is used to connect to the embedded target featuring a 38-pin Mictor target debug connector with the Arm ETMv1 or the Arm ETMv3 pinout.
The same debug adapter covers the Arm ETMv1 and the Arm ETMv3 pinout.
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 9, 11, 12, 15, 17, 19 and 21. These protect debug signals against overcurrent and cycle back to a conductive state after the excessive current fades away. Signals on pins 6, 16, 18, 20 and 22-38 are protected via 47 ohm serial resistors.
The debug adapter connects to the target via a 38-pin Mictor connector, for example Tyco Electronics 5767055-1. A target should feature a matching part, for example Tyco Electronics 5767081-1 in SMT technology.
The following pinout is valid on the target side for the ARM ETMv1:
