JTAG on FRDM iMX95 Hi all, I just bought FRDM iMX95 recently, i am curious about how to use JTAG to debug this board As check in schematic it has JTAG exposed at 6 test point pin here Zk47T_0-1781286344908.png At board layout it here Zk47T_1-1781286419335.png How should i connect jtag to it, do i need any rework ? And does this JTAG support to debug all A55, M33, and M7 core ? Which device should i use here, it seem we have 6 pin needle but it 2x3 not 1x6 I would appreciate any guide or docment to set up JTAG Thank you !! Linux Re: JTAG on FRDM iMX95 Hello,
Your understanding is correct.
As you can see in schematic is needed to add the DNP resistors and a connector for the debugger.
Best regards. Re: JTAG on FRDM iMX95 Hello, Thank you for your confirmation @JorgeCas Summary : Please help with JTAG problem ""DAP: Could not power-up system power domain."" I have done the rework for 3 resistor and measure the pin, it successfully pull up. One note that to enable JTAG, i need to disable LPUART5 in device tree because it use the same pin (i follow the same modify as imx95-19x19-jtag.dtb ) or else TMS (Test point 49) will always LOW) diff --git a/arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/imx95-15x15-frdm.dts b/arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/imx95-15x15-frdm.dts

Can MCU-Link Pro debug both A55 and M core ? I would still prefer do the debug through JTAG because i already had it. Please help If you guy plan to add document guide for JTAG on FRDM iMX95, please update it soon like FRDM iMX93. Re: JTAG on FRDM iMX95 Dear @JorgeCas Any update ? Can i use MCU-Link Pro to debug all core A55, M33 and M7 core ? Re: JTAG on FRDM iMX95 Hello,
I apologize for the delay.
We suggest you any debugger from MACRAIGOR Systems, Wind River or any of ARM.
NXP team uses Lauterbach Trace32 as debugger tool for Cortex-A cores, J-link is for Cortex-M cores.
In the case of i.MX95, as prerequisite to use the CM7 or CA55 scripts the SM should be already running on the i.MX device. it has the CM33 for resource management and security reasons, it's open source, it's compliant to a HW resource management standard by ARM, and its code it's meant (between a lot of them) to partition hardware, assign resources to either Cortex-A or Cortex-M7.
You can use this document as reference.
Debugging Cortex-M with VS Code on i.MX 8M, i.MX 8ULP, and i.MX 9
If you still having issues after this considerations, please look for hardware issues in your adapter.
Best regards. Re: JTAG on FRDM iMX95 Dear @JorgeCas Thank you for your reply. Okay so the hardware could be the problem, but i am still wonder these thing Can i have a picture for your setup debug ? I am not sure what is the official way to connect to these test point. does we need to use kind of this Zk47T_0-1783994808434.png 2. The docs only for Debug core M, not core A. Can you give me more guide for "Debug core A linux using Trace32 or JLink or MACRAIGOR " as you said ? 3. Not relate to this thread, but can i have the estimated release date for FRDM iMX95 Pro ? Re: JTAG on FRDM iMX95 Hello,
1. Our available boards for testing are not modified since if JTAG is needed, we use EVK instead FRDM boards. The recommended approach is use shorter wires as possible between the boards and debugger to warranty a good connection and signal integrity.
As you can see in this post, the issue was solved with shorter cables soldered to the board.
2. This information is in probe manual since each manufacturer uses their process and scripts to connect with the processor. There is no documentation in our side regarding these probes connection.
3. Unfortunately we do not have this information, I suggest you check our official web site for further updates.
Best regards.
