JTAG debuggers
JTAG debuggers
Hi,
I've been trying to get my Olimex ARM-USB-OCD (not the -H version) to function with OpenOCD and my Sparkfun ESP32 Thing, but to no real success. While I've managed to get OpenOCD to communicate with the device, all it does is complain about it seeing all zeroes and I'm having lots of issues getting VM-Ware to connect it to the VM with my Ubuntu installation.
What JTAG debug device are you using, and in what environments?

Re: JTAG debuggers
I took the easy way out and bought the WROVER Dev Kit from Espressif. For $50 you get:
- A WROVER module containing an ESP32 and 4MBytes of pSRAM
- An LCD display
- A microSD connector
- Exposed GPIOs (top and bottom)
- A camera connector
- An RGB LED
- An on/off switch
- ... and a DUAL port/one connection USB socket that provides TWO serial ports to your PC. One serial port for flashing/console and the other for simultaneous JTAG.

Re: JTAG debuggers
Yeah, well.. I can't base my design on the Wroover kits, can I? And I need to be able to debug on the final version of my H/W.

ESP-WROVER-KIT has JTAG header exposed, so it can be connected the the final version of H/Wpermal wrote:Yeah, well.. I can't base my design on the Wroover kits, can I? And I need to be able to debug on the final version of my H/W.
Regarding separate adapters:
* Olimex ARM-USB-OCD-H, works with "adapter_khz" at 26 MHz - https://esp32.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=2525#p12056
* I see Segger J-Link used quite often - https://gojimmypi.blogspot.com/2017/03/ ... esp32.html
* Several people use TUMPA - https://esp32.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t= ... mpa#p12285
Re: JTAG debuggers
Anyone happen two know if the "unlimited breakpoints in flash" of Jlink also works for Xtensa MCUs, i.e. the ESP32?
Re: JTAG debuggers
I'll answer myself: No, high level functions are only supported with the cores listed here: https://www.segger.com/products/debug-p ... d-devices/
Re: JTAG debuggers
So I managed to make some progress with my Olimex ARM-USB-OCD device, but am currently stuck with the following errors.
I run OpenOCD with the following command and the config is as below:
As you can see, I've lowered "adapter_khz" as far as it can go and I'm still having issues. Ideas anyone, besides tripple checking the wiring?Open On-Chip Debugger 0.10.0-dev-gcc5b0f7 (2017-08-10-17:21)

I think should be 3.3v for esp32 thingset ESP32_FLASH_VOLTAGE 1.8

I've tried both, same result.WiFive wrote:I think should be 3.3v for esp32 thingset ESP32_FLASH_VOLTAGE 1.8
