Programming and Debugging
Flashing
The MAX32655 MCU can be flashed by connecting an external debug probe to the SWD port. SWD debug can be accessed through the Cortex 10-pin connector, JH3. Logic levels are fixed to VDDIO (1.8V).
Once the debug probe is connected to your host computer, then you can simply run the
west flash command to write a firmware image into flash. To perform a full erase,
pass the --erase option when executing west flash.
Note
This board uses OpenOCD as the default debug interface. You can also use
a Segger J-Link with Segger’s native tooling by overriding the runner,
appending --runner jlink to your west command(s). The J-Link should
be connected to the standard 2*5 pin debug connector (JW3) using an
appropriate adapter board and cable.
Debugging
Please refer to the Flashing section and run the west debug command
instead of west flash.
