IMX6 CMSIS SVD files

john_smith — Thu, 30 Nov 2017 12:08:28 GMT

Hello!

I'm trying to debug IMX6Q with Eclipse. For peripheral registers view I use EmbSysRegView plugin. It has no data for IMX6 processors, but it can use external SVD files. I've downloaded such files from this thread - When will CMSIS SVD files be available for i.MX devices? .

But EmbSysRegView cannot work with these files. And SVDConv.exe utility from Keil shows a lot of errors and warnings while testing these files.

Are there any correct SVD CMSIS files for IMX6Q? Or maybe there is another way to debug peripheral registers in Eclipse?

Thank you in advance!

Hi John,

CMSIS SVD is CMSIS：Cortex Microcontroller Software Interface Standard System View Description. It means a vendor-independent hardware abstraction layer for the Cortex-M processor series and defines generic tool interfaces.

Only for MCUs based on cortex-M serials, so i.mx6q doesn't have it.

Have a nice day!

Thank you! No, it's clear )

And do you know if there is any way to read/write peripheral registers' values in Eclipse?
