Re: TMS570 Debug board

Thanks, Zach. That might mean that what I ordered is different. See in the picture, the place where you added the connector is not populated. (You have to hover over it to get the expanded version in order to see it). https://www.newark.com/texas-instruments/cc-devpack-debug/debugger-devpak-s… Well see what happens. Actually do you have a couple of male connectors that you could send me? That way, I could easily add it in and test the new board (assuming it comes...maybe you'd better wait until I get a shipping number :-) ) 73, Burns Fisher, WB1FJ *AMSAT(R) Engineering -- Flight Software* On Fri, Dec 8, 2023 at 10:32 AM Zach Metzinger <zmetzing(a)pobox.com> wrote: > On 12/8/23 08:07, Burns Fisher (AMSAT) wrote: > > Note to Pacsat folks: It appears (and Zach can confirm) that Zach must > > have just ADDED a connector into a DNP space on the board...this is > > based on the pictures. > > Hello Burns and the Pacsat team, > > This is not correct; I replace the female 2x5 connector with a male 2x5 > shrouded/keyed connector.

TMS570 Debug board

Zach, I happened to notice that Newark still has some of the DEVPACK boards in stock. Now Newark is not the most reliable of sources, but they are cheap. Anyway, to everyone, I ordered two plus a similar one they Newark listed as a replacement. We'll see what happens. Note to Pacsat folks: It appears (and Zach can confirm) that Zach must have just ADDED a connector into a DNP space on the board...this is based on the pictures. 73, Burns Fisher, WB1FJ *AMSAT(R) Engineering -- Flight Software*

Pictures of my debug probe

The ribbon cable has the same connector on both ends...Zach replaced the connector on the debug board with one like he has on the RT-IHU (or maybe it was even just changing the gender). You can see the number of the big chip on the bottom, but I could not even make out the numbers on the little one with a bright light and mag goggles. 73, Burns Fisher, WB1FJ *AMSAT(R) Engineering -- Flight Software*

TMS570 JTAG interface
by Corey Minyard 08 Dec '23

It looks like the launchpad uses an XDS100v2 chip for going from USB to serial ports and JTAG. TI's web page on it is https://software-dl.ti.com/ccs/esd/documents/xdsdebugprobes/emu_xds100.html The USB device ID would be provided by the XDS100, so as long as you have that chip, it should just work. I've used Olimex before for other things, and that adapter is 55 euro. Anyway, we have options. -corey
