Product Features

    • Supports UPDI, JTAG, SWD, PDI, TPI, aWire, SPI and debugWIRE interfaces
    • Two independent measurement channels measuring both voltage and current simultaneously - One high resolution channel that can measure 100nA to 100mA and one lower resolution channel that can measure 1mA to 1A.
    • Adjustable power supply that can be used to power the target application - Voltage adjustable between 1.6V and 5.5V. Can deliver up to 100mA
    • USB feed-through connection for easy measurement of current consumption of USB powered target board
    • 1.62 to 5.5V target operation
    • USB powered
    • Provides both ARM Cortex Debug Connector (10-pin) pin-out and AVR JTAG connector pin-out
    • CDC virtual COM port interface
    • Atmel Data Gateway Interface channels for streaming application data to the host computer from a SPI, USART, TWI or GPIO source

Summary

Power Debugger is a powerful development tool for debugging and programming AVR microcontrollers using UPDI, JTAG, PDI, debugWIRE, aWire, TPI or SPI target interfaces and ARM® Cortex®-M based SAM microcontrollers using JTAG or SWD target interfaces.

In addition the Power Debugger has two independent current sensing channels for measuring and optimizing the power consumption of a design.

Power Debugger also includes a CDC virtual COM port interface as well as Data Gateway Interface channels for streaming application data to the host computer from a SPI, USART, TWI or GPIO source.

The Power Debugger is a CMSIS-DAP compatible debugger which works with MPLAB X,  Atmel Studio 7 and other frontend software capable of connecting to a generic CMSIS-DAP unit. The Power Debugger streams power measurements and application debug data to Data Vizualiser for real-time analysis.
