While there are several debuggers available, TI provides a free debugger and programmer for use with these parts. The debugger is Code Compose Studio. It will also program the part for debugging purposes. UniFlash can be used to program parts. Both require the use of a scan controller, unless you are doing development on one of our Launchpads (EK-TM4C129EXL). The lanuchpad has a built in scan controller.

You can choose from several scan controllers. The tradeoff is price for performance. At the low end, you can use the Launchpad as a scan controller for your target board. The XDS110 is a low cost option. The XDS200 is higher performance for a higher price.

Other people use debuggers from IAR and scan controllers from Signum. I will let people who have experience with those tools comment on them.

Hi Sir,

Both the XDS110 and the XDS200 come with a 20-pin to 10-pin adapter:
