EK-TM4C123GXL: what emulator is embedded

HS FAE Germany

Part Number: EK-TM4C123GXL
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH,

Hello,
customer wants to use the emulator on the launchpad to debug their application. What emulator has he to configure in CCS or Uniflash? XDS100v2?

Hi,

The on-board debug probe is called ICDI. In CCS, you need to specify Stellaris In-Circuit Debug Interface.

If you want to use the debug probe on the EK-TM4C123GXL to debug out another board, use this app note for reference in section 4.6.

Hello Charles,
is it possible to use the EK-TM4C123GXL to debug another MCU like C2000? If yes what emulator do I have to use in CCS? XDS100v2?

HI Holger,

I thought I already answered the question. The emulator to specify is ICDI (Stellaris In-Circuit Debug Interface) in CCS.

The Stellaris In-Circuit Debug Interface (IDCI) on the EK-TM4C123GXL only supports microcontrollers with a Cortex-M3 or Cortex-M4 CPU, so C2000 MCU's aren't supported.

If you open the Target Configuration editor in CCS, and select Stellaris In-Circuit Interface as the Connection, then you can see the supported devices:
