Opella-XDS560 Ultra-high-speed JTAG Debug Probe for TI Development

Ashling's Opella-XDS560 JTAG Debug Probe, supplied and supported by Arcadi Systems, is the fastest-available debug probe for embedded development on Texas Instruments (TI) Digital Signal Processors and embedded microcontrollers

Opella-XDS560 is designed to work with TI’s Code Composer Studio™ (CCStudio™) IDE and seamlessly plugs into the CCStudio environment. You can conveniently and quickly debug your application code actually running on your target system. Opella-XDS560 provides full support for all CCStudio hardware-debug features including program download, breakpoints, memory and register access and source-level program control (go, halt, step).

• Fast, easy-to-install USB 2.0 High-Speed Interface (480Mb/s)
• Support for all TI device families, including OMAP™, DaVinci™, TMS320C6000™, TMS320C5000™, TMS320C2000™ and TMS470™
• Wide target voltage range: 0.5V to 5.0V. Opella-XDS560 detects and automatically configures for the appropriate target voltage
• Real-time, non-intrusive breakpoints and event triggering
• Code download speeds at over 500KB/s (using high-speed USB2.0)
• High-speed Real-Time Data eXchange (RTDX) support (allows rapid data transfer between host and target non-intrusively in real-time). RTDX data rates of over 2MB/s are supported.
• Target JTAG clock rates from 500 kHz to 35MHz with full support for adaptive clocking (RTCK) of debug data from target
• 14-pin and 20-pin (compact TI) JTAG target connectors supported
• Front-panel LEDs show Power, USB and Target status
• Full support for TI’s DBGJTAG low-level JTAG test utility (supplied with CCStudio)

The compact and powerful Opella-XDS560 unit provides the JTAG hardware interface between TI's Code Composer Studio™ IDE and Source-Level Debugger, and your target TI application.

Benefits of Opella-XD560 to the Texas Instruments hardware developer include:

• Accelerates the entire embedded-hardware debug process: ultra-fast installation, code download and flash programming saves time at every code rebuild
• Instantly auto-configures to target system
• Long-term investment: works with all popular target architectures and compilers
• Helps with the most difficult debugging tasks: hardware bring-up, operating-system boot, post-mortem debugging
• Future-proof: works with latest hardware-debug protocols, all popular host operating-systems
• Compact, easy-to-install target probe cables support all popular debug interfaces
• Seamlessly integrates with Texas Instruments' Code Composer Studio™ Integrated Development Environmenmt and Source-level debugger

Opella-XD Debug Probe Specification:

• High-speed USB2.0 (480Mb/s) interface to host PC
• Auto-conditioning for fast JTAG clock frequencies
• Configurable Target-Reset and Test-Port-Reset, under full user control
• Fine-grained adjustment of JTAG clock frequency
• Supports target operating voltages from 0.9V to 3.6V. Opella-XD detects and automatically configures for the appropriate target voltage.
• Run/stop control of target application including go, halt, step-over, step-into and step-out-of
