Cortex-A8 DS-5 J-Link SBC-i.MX51 Bare-Metal

Note: This was originally posted on 22nd December 2010 at http://forums.arm.com

Hi,

is this the right forum?

I have a J-Link JTAG/USB interface, I recently acquired a Bluetechnix SBC-i.MX51 and I am just this moment downloading the DS-5 EVAL  (30 DAY).

I want to do bare-metal programming, i.e. no Linux no WinCE.

Do I have any chance to achieve this with this set of tools, e.g. with the combination of 'J-Link & DS-5' and with 'DS-5 & bare-metal i.MX51'?

Thanks,
Frank.

    Hi, yes, this is the right forum.

    The latest DS-5 eval indeed supports bare metal development on an i.MX51. However, in order to do this you need a DSTREAM (www.arm.com/dstream) or RVI (www.arm.com/rvi) target connection unit.

    t the moment there are no plans to support J-Link, although we (ARM) are open to license the RDDI debug interface to Segger, and to support alternative "low-cost" JTAG probes in the future.

    Best regards, Javier
