You have been misled. You can't use JTAG (or SWD) as a replacement for UART. You can use semihosting or the new ITM support to read/write to the debugger console. Why can't you use the LPC17xx built-in UART?

Hi,
     I just want to have (UART) serial communication with LPC1769. I'm not able to do via plugging USB to my PC as virtual COM port is not visible in the device manager. Someone said use JTAG's TDO and TDI pins for serial communication... I just want to know how to use them..

Thanks for the reply...
