ULINKplus debug adapter ULINKPLUS The ULINKplus debug adapter connects your PC s USB port to your target system (via a 10-pin Cortex Debug connector). It allows you to program, debug, and analyze your applications and their power consumption using its outstanding power measurement technology. ULINKplus, together with MDK, provides extended on-the-fly debug capabilities for Cortex-M devices. You can control the processor, set breakpoints, and read/write memory contents, all while the processor is running at full speed. High-Speed data trace enables you to analyze detailed program behavior. Introduction ULINKplus is an innovative universal debug/trace adapter that enables test automation, software optimization for ultra-low power applications, and isolation for high-speed debug and SWV trace of sensitive hardware systems. The compact enclosure allows usage in harsh environments and provides standard target connectors for JTAG, power measurement, and general purpose I/O. ULINKplus connects to any Arm Cortex-based device and offers multi-core debugging. It uses a CMSIS- DAPinterface which is widely supported by many debuggers. It provides isolated JTAG/serial-wire pins and isolated power measurement connections to the target hardware. This is essential for debugging applications such as motor control, power converters, or systems with sensitive analog processing. A unique feature of ULINKplus is the power measurement capability. It utilizes two high-precision 16-bit sigma-delta A/D converters with 20 MHz sample rate for high signal/noise ratio. Power measurement is synchronized to event tracing, which makes it easy to optimize the energy efficiency of a system. ULINKplus provides general purpose I/Os accessible from debug views or from debug scripts. This enables you to interact with the target under test or to control automated test stands. Kit Contents The ULINKplus kit includes: 1 x ULINKplus USB-JTAG adapter. 1 x USB A/MicroB cable. 1 x 10-pin ribbon cable for connecting to target hardware using the Cortex debug connector. 14 x jumper wires for power measurement and I/O test connections. 6 x power measurement shunts (5 mA, 10 mA, 25 mA, 50 mA, 100 mA and 250 mA).
