Hello to everybody.

I'm using Concerto mcu and I want to break the M3 in a way like ESTOP0 in C28x.

I see M3 instruction set and I notice "BKPT #imm" instruction.

I write this code

asm(" BKPT #0x03");

but when the processor execute this instruction it doesn't stop.

Can someone help me ?

Mauro,

Have you tried just using __asm(" BKPT #0x00"); ? I've used it with the 0x00 immediate value in the past without any issues. I just tried with your 0x03 value and it looks like CCS doesn't like that.

For more information, refer to the ARM Cortex-M3 reference at http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.dui0552a/BABHCHGB.html.

Regards,
Harrison
