Hi Segger Team,
whats the difference between JLink V10 and V11 ? Regarding your wiki both are supporting the same things. But where is the difference then?
Is the V10 still updated?
Got currently an old V8 Edu and want to update to a newer EDU to support Cortex-A cores so i need a newer JLink or?

Are there plans to support other PIC (18, dspic) beside PIC32? V10/V11 should support ICSP but why not PIC18? Would be great if i don't need my PICkit 3 anymore..
Only a JLink for all...

And another question if i got a binary / hex file (diy kit) for a uC currently i have to go with Openocd to flash the binary into the uC or is there a simpler way to use JLink Software beside buying a "not for hobby priced" Jflash?

Maybe it is possible to add a EDU Licence where you can use Jflash once every 5 minute or 15 or 60 minutes? Would be great or maybe im missing the correct use..?

And are STM8 now supported? And if not why? Hardware should be capable or ? And Software is also ready you got them in your STM8 flasher or?

Many questions.. Bestellt regards
Felix

Thx for your reply Alex but i have still some questions:
Ok, but whats the difference in hardware, are there some other downsides additionaly to "no new features" i ask because if i order a new JLink EDU and i get a V10 or maybe i can purchase a used V10 are there other disadvantages compared to a V11?

And if i order a new JLink EDU from one of your distributors will i get V11 or maybe an older V10? Do i have to ask every distibutor which version i will get?
For german customers like me it looks like there is no distributor which sells EDUs / has one available?
In the distributor list Segger Germany is listed but there is no EDU in your webshop and otherwise only Rutronik looks like they are selling EDUs but it's on allocation..and Hitex or AK Modul Bus aren't listing Jlinks EDUs or other Jlinks.
Thanks for this information didn't know that it is the same name but totally different things.
But i think PIC16/18/24/33 and Atmel AVR, STM8 is not a "very low paying customer base" these 8bit devices are still used in huge quantities (white goods and so on) and Microchip is one of the biggest companys in the microcontroller world.

Sure EDUs aren't paying your salaries, i know how much our "Lauterbach" has cost at my work ;-), but if your'e adding support for these still often used micros (PIC16/18/24/33 and Atmel AVR, STM8) a lot of other professional companys would probably buy "paying your salaries" Jlinks / Segger Devices.

Sure i know how much man months / work / money would go into supporting this additional devices but currently there is not a single programmer (every micro needs another programmer is really annoying) which can support all these in huge quantities used devices..

And for STM8 you already have the "code"..

But sure your decision / company usp so no further discussion from me, just a "maybe think about it again"




thanks for pointing me to this will try it. And sure with this information there is no need for the "Jflash once every 5 minute or 15 or 60 minutes" thingy

Hi Alex, sorry you are right i mixed it up.
In my "world" (hobby projects) my PICKIT3 / JLink is for debugging and programming (thats why i wrote programmer but i meant debugger)

In companys which are programming in production its probably different (we are using Linux based devices, so we do not use flash programmer like Jlink in our production)


So last question which is open, is the one regarding difference between V10/V11 beside "no new features" and where i can get a V11 EDU in Europe / Germany from..
