  • [SOLVED] Content of example .pex file (NRF52840 Trace Example)

    Hi,

    From reading this (wiki.segger.com/How_to_configu…t_files_to_enable_tracing), I assume the .pex file in this project (wiki.segger.com/Tracing_on_Nordic_Semiconductor_nRF52840) sets up the pins required for trace to work?

    Would it be possible to get it in .jdebug format? If not, is there any other example of this for another board in .jdebug format?

  • Hello,

    Thank you for your inquiry.
    Correct the pex file is the equivalent to the JLinkScript, just not in source form.

    We could provide you with the J-LinkScript source for reference.
    You can request it via our support system. See my signature for the link.
    Make sure to add information about the reason why you need the source and specify if something is not working as expected.

    A .jdebug variant is not available as the trace pin init has to be done at a specific point during debugging. Using the .jdebug file will not work reliably.
    That is why we recommend to use the JLinkScript/pex files as shown in the examples.

    Best regards,
    Nino
