USB-JTAG$2,495 Datasheet

MDS offers a USB based JTAG interface for development of software for stand-alone systems using Trident's TriMedia/Nexperia processors:

It supports Trident's PNX1005, PNX1500, and PNX1700 processor families.

Download, run, and debug your TriMedia/Nexperia code using the dvpMon and tmdbg GUI tools contained in the Trident NDK. The  JCON/MJCON tools offer command-line download/run with attached stdout console for in-field diagnostic capability of your stand-alone system.

Program boot eeprom devices in-place on the target board using boundary-scan capability of TriMedia/Nexperia chip.

Can also be used to program the TriMedia with a program that in turn puts programs into flash memory on your target board or system.

More information can be found on the datasheet. Debugger requires use of Windows XP (32 bit)

NOTE: The interface uses a standard JTAG connection to the target system, but they are not intended for use as general purpose JTAG analysis/control tools. These interfaces are designed to operate within the context of the NDK/TCS toolset. Specifically, boundary-scan operations are limited to those used by the tools. Operation as complete boundary scan analysis/control JTAG devices would require additional software and is not supported as part of the standard products.
