AVR JTAG
Embedded debugging system


Description

AVR JTAG is tool for debugging devices basis on Atmel AVR microcontrollers family. AVR JTAG is full analogue of JTAG ICE from Atmel.

For work AVR JTAG used the AVR Studio application from Atmel. AVR JTAG is supports all microcontrollers having JTAG interface:
ATmega16;
ATmega162;
ATmega169;
ATmega32;
ATMega323;
ATMega64;
ATmega128, etc...
New devices can be added by embedded in AVR Studio JTAG software update.

Connection

Connect AVR JTAG to the PC, and target debugged device to AVR JTAG before run AVR Studio. It will enable AVR Studio automatically to determine AVR JTAG and debugged device.

Connection to the PC

AVR JTAG is connected to standard PC COM port. For connection is used 9-pin "direct" cable. At start AVR Studio try automatically searches all supported devices, connected to COM1, COM2, COM3, etc. Search will be stopped then supported device will be found.
For example: AVR Prog is connected to COM1, and AVR JTAG to COM2.
Result: AVR Studio will find only AVR Prog.
Please check before run AVR Studio what all other devices (AVR Prog, STK500, etc.) is disconnected. Or set COM port which connected AVR JTAG manually.
If COM port which connected AVR JTAG, is used by other application(for example, the terminal) AVR Studio can not find AVR JTAG. Finish these application, before start AVR Studio.

Connection to the debugged device

For connection to the debugged device 6 lines are used: TCK, TDO, TDI, TMS, VTref and GND,

The circuit of connection to the microcontroller.

Power supply connection

AVR JTAG receives a power external DC 9…12V power supply used 2.5 mm connector. Polarity of a source is not important.
For correct detection of AVR JTAG the power to debugging device and AVR JTAG is need to be up before run debugging (AVR Studio button "Start Debugging").
The following steps are recommended:
1. Power up debugging device;
2. Power up AVR JTAG;
3. Run AVR Studio.

Update

HEX file for AVR Studio 4.10 build 356 flash4_10.zip

 

P.S. AVR JTAG is full compatible with original Atmel AVR JTAG ICE.
