Linux CLI tools for MCU-Link Pro

[chad_k]

I'm considering using the MCU-Link Pro running from an ARM-based Linux computer (probably a Raspberry Pi 4) as a programming setup for production with the LPC5528.  Does anyone know what CLI tools are available?  The documentation online is a little sparse.  Am I trying to do this the hard way?  Is there a better way?  Thanks for your help!

NXP has released a CLI tool for the LinkServer (e.g. supporting the MCU-Link debug probes), see

I hope this helps,

Erich,

That looks great.  Thank you for your work on this.  Is there any way to get an installer for Raspbian or the source packages to build it for an ARM-based system?

[ErichStyger]

There is no ARM based package to my knowledge, and it is not available in source form.

But you can run the arm-none-eabi-gdb  on the Raspy and then connect to its TCP port (3333 by default).

Hello @chad_k 

Sorry I can not provide Linux CLI tools, about the use of MCU-Link Pro, you can refer to user manual:
