Hello,
the SEGGER J-Link JTAG emulators are supported in CodeComposerStudio and the TI AM4377 processor is supported by SEGGER. However, the AM4377 is not yet enabled in CCS.

From TI I got the following response:
Hello Bernd,
The J-Link package in CCS does not appear to come with the driver XML file for the Cortex-A9. Hence AM437x does not appear to be supported in CCS.
Looks like they have had J-Link support for it for awhile, but still has not added support for it in CCS

As mentioned in the above threads, support for this would have to come from Segger. It is best to contact them directly.
Thanks

Might it be possible for SEGGER to add the support for it in CCS?

Thanks a lot for your help,
have a nice day,

Bernd

Hello Fabian,

Have a nice day,
best regards,

Hello Fabian,

great - I am looking forward to test and use it!

Thanks a lot,
have a nice day,

Hello Fabian,

has the new version of the J-Link CCS Plugin with the Cortex-A9 support been released? If yes, where can I get it from?

Tanks a lot,
have a nice day,

Bernd

Hello Fabian,

I tried to use the latest J-Link files, but I couldn't get it working. When changing the target configuration in CCS from TI-Debug-probe to <Segger J-Link Emulator> I still get the error message <Unable to find appropriate device driver for connection type "JLink" and isa "CortexA9">. The versions I get from the update site (download.segger.com/J-Link/JLink_TI_CCS_plugin_unified) are:

• <SEGGER J-Link USB-Driver> 1.0.0.6
  
• <SEGGER J-Link Support> 7.52.4.0.
  

Are these the correct ones or am I using the wrong update-site?

Thanks a lot for your help,
have a nice day,
Bernd

PS: I am using CCS 10.4.0.6

Hello Fabian,

it downloads the update support and driver files, but unfortunately it still doesn't work (even after a clean-install of CCS) - When switching in my "Target Configuration" from "Blackhawk" to "Segger J-Link Emulator" I still get the error message [Unable to find an appropriate device driver for the connection type "JLink" and isa "CortexA9"]...

The following Segger support & drivers are installed:

• Segger J-Link Support (Windows x86_64): 7.56.2.0
  
• Segger J-Link USB Driver: 1.0.1.0
  

Best regards,
Bernd

Hello Fabian,

if I create a new CCS Project ("File"->"New"->"CCS Project") and select as target the AM3359, then I get in the "Connection" pulldown menu the option to select "Segger J-Link Emulator". If selecting as target the AM4378, the possiblity to select the "Segger J-Link Emulator" disappears...

Maybe it would be fastest to show you the effect by a TeamViewer, or Teams meeting?

Best regards,
Bernd

Hello Fabian,
it works now - I could connect, download and run a test program. Thanks!

However, for your information, I get a few messages in the Console:
