DSTREAM debug/trace and TWR-VF65GS10

tomaszsliwinski — Tue, 22 Sep 2015 19:54:05 GMT

Hello,

We need a better debugger/trace capability than the stock CMSIS-DAP that came with TWR-VF65GS10.

Will the DSTREAM unit work with TWR-VF65GS10? Here’s what we found: http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/DSTRM-KT-0181A/DSTRM-KT-0181A-ND/2522245

It claims it will work with all ARM processors.

thanks

Hi,

With DSTREAM you are able to debug the Vybrid devices, both cores with trace capabilities.

Best Regards,

Alejandro

Does using the DSTREAM debugging hardware require a special license of DS-5? Or will the Vybrid Starter Edition of DS-5 work with it?

Hi,

As I see you can use DS-5 Vybrid Edition and DStream with not problems. Please refer to the information below for more details:

I just looked and that edition (bundled with the Vybrid tower) that works with the ARM DSTREAM is no longer available.

ARM DSTREAM works with DS-5 Vybrid Edition.

It doesn't work with the DS-5 Vybrid Tower Starter Kit which is what you get when you buy the tower and get the DS-5 development software for free - does NOT work with DSTREAM.

Also, the version of DS-5 (Vybrid Edition) that will work with ARM DSTREAM is an extra-cost item. It seems that DS-5 Vybrid Edition costs maybe $3,000. I can't find a definitive price anywhere. So, getting the DSTREAM-enabled DS-5 and the DSTREAM hardware will cost $6,500 or more.

Hi Jack,

Shame on arm.com you can't find the price of DS-5 Vybrid edition. It also took me a lot of time to figure available options. You either buy 1year node locked Vybrid edition for >1k$, or buy professional or higher editions

Hi All,

So how about ULinkPro debuggers?

DS-5 / Debug / ULINKpro family | ARM DS-5 Development Studio

Anyone knows if they will work with DS-5 Vybrid Tower System Starter Kit ?

ARM representative said no... but in DS-5 Vybrid Tower System Starter Kit there are options to connect to: ULINKpro & ULINKpro D

Hello

ULINKpro is designed for ETM instruction trace Cortex-M (and maybe Cortex-R) processors. It will not work with Cortex-A ETM or PTM.

A ULINKpro D is a ULINKpro with the ETM trace removed.

Both of these will work with DS-5 in place of a DSTREAM but the ETM trace will not work.

Both will work with Keil MDK for Kinetis boards: see www.keil.com/appnotes/docs/apnt_249.asp

BUT!

1) ETB instruction trace (if the processor is so equipped) will work with ULINKpro or ULINKpro D. ETB is a small on-board RAM used as a trace buffer.

2) ULINKpro and pro D will operate both cores.

3) Serial Wire Viewer (SWV) works with any ULINK. This is mostly on Kinetis Cortex-M and is data trace.
