  • How can I access the ETB on a SAMA5D2 device using the Atmel-ICE?

    I tried running Ozone and viewing the Instruction Trace window, but when it starts up, it reports:

    Source Code

    1. *** J-Link V5.10g Warning ***
    2. ETM RAWTRACE is not supported by the connected emulator.
    3. Target does not have an ETB which could be used instead
    4. *** J-Link V5.10g Warning ***

    I know that the SAMA5D2 device has an ETB, so why does the tool report "Target does not have an ETB which could be used instead"?

    Do I need to purchase a special license? If so, what license should I purchase?

    Do I need to purchase a J-Link Base or J-Link Pro? If so, how can I be sure that this feature is supported?

  • Hello,

    Trace (ETM and ETB) of the SAMA5D2 is not yet supported.
    The SAMA5D2 is one of the first Cortex-A5 with trace and the handling of the trace unit has to be added.

    Support will be added in a future version of the J-Link software.
    To automatically get updates on new versions, subscribe to the J-Link notification list:
    segger.com/notification/subscribe.php?prodid=7,94

    When the support has been added it will work with the SAM-ICE, too.

    Best regards
    Johannes
