Note: Replacement probes for the CABLE_CFLV include the USB-ML-UNIVERSAL and USB-ML-UNIVERSAL-FX. For a production environment, we recommend the Cyclone Universal FX. Please visit the Legacy Hardware Transition Support Page for more information.

PEmicro's Shielded ColdFire Interface Cable provides access to the Background Debug Mode (BDM) on an NXP ColdFire microcontroller. It is the hardware interface between a standard IBM PC parallel port (DB25 female connector) and a standard 26 pin connector - the background mode header on a ColdFire target system. By using the ColdFire BDM Cable the user can take advantage of the background debug mode to halt normal processor execution and use a PC to control the on-chip resources. The user can then directly control the target's execution, read/write registers, memory values and program internal or external FLASH memory devices. The pin-outs of the BDM connector are specified by PEmicro. The ColdFire Cable is supplied in a small, protective, metallic-coated plastic shell.

KEY FEATURES:

• Full control of the on-chip resources via BDM
• Full speed in-circuit emulation at a reasonable price

• Works with PEmicro's ICDCF debugger and PROGCF programmer
• Separate versions available for 3V and 5V targets
• Very fast downloads and stepping
• NEW! Optional ribbon cable now available - see description to lower left.
• UNITCFZ interface library, demo, and .DLL interface for custom testers and software is available for purchase
