Setting up uvision4 debugger with Cortex-M1 on Altera Cyclone III

Note: This was originally posted on 21st June 2011 at http://forums.arm.com

I am trying to setup the uvision4 debugger to communicate with Cortex M1 on Altera Cyclone III through the USB JTAG interface. I have observed from the Cortex-M1 development kit that this can be done by instantiating the Virtual JTAG megafunction and implementing a glue logic to interface the Virtual JTAG with the Cortex-M1 RTL. Unfortunately, the Verilog description of the glue logic is not visible.

Can anyone give me some pointers on how to go about designing the glue logic between Virtual JTAG and Cortex-M1? Or is there another alternative to this? Thanks.

    I have discussed with the engineer who worked on this. When Cortex-M1 was developed, the Virtual JTAG detail specification was not open to public. As a result, we were unable to include the glue logic to the Cortex-M1 RTL package.

    You should be able to bring out the JTAG/Serial Wire signals to the FPGA top level (you need to add a tristate buffer to SWIO), then you should be able to connect it to the debugger using Keil ULINK, Segger J-Link or other debuggers, using this separated JTAG interface.

    Alternatively you can contact our support team to see if we can provide the detail of this glue logic to you.
