Introduction
This chapter gives a short overview of the I-jet in-circuit debugging probe.
More specifically, this means:
●The I-jet In-Circuit Debugging Probe
●Requirements
●Supported ARM core families
●Supported operating systems
●Connections.
The I-jet In-Circuit Debugging Probe
I-jet is an in-circuit debugging probe, which connects to the target board via a JTAG or
SWD connection, and to the host PC via the USB port. I-jet is also referred to as a debug
probe, debug adapter, or JTAG in-circuit emulator by different tool vendors.

Requirements
I-jet®
User Guide
Besides the typical JTAG debugging, I-jet is capable of providing power to the target
board and measuring it with sufficient accuracy to provide a power profile during
program execution in real time. This feature is referred to as power debugging.
Figure 2: Communication overview
For debugging Cortex-M devices, I-jet supports the SWO (Serial Wire Output) feature,
which can be used for tracing the program execution and sending variables at predefined
points in your code. I-jet streams the program counter, variables, and power
measurement data to the host PC to provide a much better view into program execution
in real time.
Requirements
I-jet needs to be controlled by the IAR C-SPY® Debugger which comes with the IAR
Embedded Workbench® IDE.

Working with I-jet
This chapter describes how to work with I-jet. More specifically, this means:
●Setup and installation
●Connecting the target system.
For information about debugging using I-jet, see the C-SPY® Debugging Guide
for ARM.
Setup and installation
SOFTWARE
I-jet requires IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM to be installed.
PROBE SETUP
I-jet does not require any special driver software installation. All drivers for I-jet are part
of the installation of IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM.
If you need to install the driver manually, navigate to
\Program Files\IAR Systems\Embedded Workbench x.x\arm\drivers\jet
\USB\32-bit or 64-bit (depending on your system). Start the dpinst.exe
application. This will install the driver.
For information about using multiple I-jet probes on the same PC, see the C-SPY®
Debugging Guide for ARM.
Connecting the target system
POWER-ON SEQUENCE
When the target power is not provided by I-jet, you do not need to follow any special
powering sequence. Connect I-jet to a powered and running target board and start
debugging.
When hot-plugging, the target GND and the USB host GND must be at the same level.
To prevent damage due to GND differences, make sure that the PC and the target board
power supply are connected to the same wall outlet or a common desktop power strip.

User Guide
POWER UP YOUR EVALUATION BOARD
If you have an evaluation board that is prepared for it, you can power the board via I-jet
through pin 19 on the 20-pin 0.1 in pitch JTAG connector, or pin 11/13 on the small 0.05
in pitch MIPI-20 connector. Target power of up to 400 mA can be supplied from I-jet
with overload protection. Most of the IAR Systems KickStart Kits contain an evaluation
board that can be powered this way.
Note: The target board will get power via I-Jet once you start the compile and
download routine, but not before.

User Guide
These are the pin definitions of the ARM-20 adapter:
Pin I-jet
direction Name Description
nTRST Output Test Reset Active LOW signal that resets the TAP controller's
state machine.
TCK Output Test Clock TCK synchronizes all JTAG transactions. TCK
connects to all JTAG devices in the scan chain. TCK
flows down the stack of modules and connects to
each JTAG device. However, if there is a device in the
scan chain that synchronizes TCK to some other
clock, then all down-stream devices are connected to
the RTCK signal on that processor.
TMS Output Test Mode Select TMS controls transitions in the tap controller state
machine. TMS connects to all JTAG devices in the
scan chain as the signal flows down the module stack.
TDI Output Test Data Input TDI is the test data input signal that is routed to the
TDI input of the first device in the scan chain.
TDO Input Test Data Output TDO is the return path of the test data input signal
TDI. In a multi-device JTAG chain, the TDO of the
first device connects to the TDI of the next device,
etc. The last device's TDO is connected to the TDO
on the JTAG header.
RTCK Input TCK Return RTCK is a mechanism for returning the sampled
clock to the JTAG equipment, so that the clock is not
advanced until the synchronizing device captured the
data. In adaptive clocking mode, I-jet is required to
detect an edge on RTCK before changing TCK. In a
multi-device JTAG chain, the RTCK output from a
device connects to the TCK input of the
down-stream device.
If there are no synchronizing devices in the scan
chain, it is unnecessary to use the RTCK signal and it
is connected to ground on the target board.

The R2 pull-down on pin 17 of the I-jet MIPI20 connector is a signal to the I-jet that a
legacy ARM-20 adapter is being used. Other adapters will have different resistors so that
I-jet can identify them if needed. A solid GND on this pin means no adapter is being
used and the MIPI cable is connected directly between the I-jet and the target board.
ARM-20 header information (for target board)
The ARM-20 header is manufactured by Tyco Electronics. The part number is
103308-5. For more information, see the manufacturer's web page
http://www.te.com/catalog/pn/en/103308-5?RQPN=103308-5.
THE ADA-MIPI20-TI14 ADAPTER
The ADA-MIPI20-TI14 adapter adapts the I-jet standard MIPI-20 cable pinout to the
Texas Instruments 14-pin JTAG interface used on many OMAP, DaVinci, and other
TMS320, TMS470, and TMS570 target boards.
VTref Input Voltage Target
Reference
This is the target reference voltage. It indicates that
the target has power. VTref is normally fed from Vdd
on the target hardware and might have a series
resistor (though this is not recommended).
VTref is used by I-jet to detect if target power is
active and to set JTAG signal voltage reference for
level translators.
nSRST I/O System Reset Active LOW open-collector signal that is driven by
I-jet to reset the device and/or the target board.
I-jet senses this line to determine when you have
reset the device.
Vsupply Output -- This pin is not connected to I-jet.
DBGRQ Output -- This pin is not connected on I-jet.

WR
Output Target Power This pin is used under SW control to supply 5 V
power to the target board. It should be routed
through a jumper shunt to the 5 V DC board input to
eliminate the power adapter during debugging. The
maximum current supplied by I-jet on this pin is
about 420 mA. When the current supplied reaches
~500 mA, the power will be shut down for
protection.

The adapter has the MIPI-20 male header on top for connecting the I-jet MIPI-20 cable,
and a TI-14-style female header (socket) on the bottom. The TI-14 JTAG header is a
14-pin, double-row, 0.1 in × 0.1 in (2.54 mm × 2.54 mm) pitch connector with a key
(plug) in position 6 to prevent misconnections. In case the key plug is missing, a white
arrow on pin 1 of the TI-14 connector helps you ensure proper orientation.
