Hello ,

Is it possible to get firmware (xxx.axf) of the connected target (upload)?

I am having LPC LINK-2 in MCUXPRESSO IDE.

regards,

Hemanth

Hi Hemanth,

Do you want to read back firmware from target chip? You can only read back binary firmware. It's impossible to read  back .axf file. https://www.programmersought.com/article/3980249048/ 

MCUXpresso can't read data back. You can download jlink application to LPC LINK2 and use Segger software to read.

As you are already using MCUXpresso IDE, you could alternatively just use the IDE's Memory View - which will work with any supported debug probe - including the LPC-Link2 with the default NXP CMSIS-DAP firmware.  More details in this previous post : https://community.nxp.com/message/997053?commentID=997053#comment-996621 

Hope this helps!

Hello Jing,

Thanks!! I was looking for a similar tool.

Do I need a J-Link license to use this?

I tried enumerate the LPC LINK-2 as J-Link, but it is unable to connect by USB.

I referred to below link:

https://www.segger.com/products/debug-probes/j-link/models/other-j-links/lpc-link-2/ 

Could you help me enumerate LINK-2 as J-Link?

Thanks!!

regards,

Hemanth
