Overview

The TMDSEMU110-U is the XDS110 debug probe, a versatile JTAG emulator designed for Texas Instruments microcontrollers, processors, and DSPs. It provides a complete solution for debugging and programming over USB 2.0, supporting multiple physical interfaces including JTAG, cJTAG, and SWD. This probe also includes specialized hardware for energy monitoring and system-level tracing.

Why Choose This Part

The XDS110 offers a significant upgrade over entry-level probes by integrating EnergyTrace and power profiling capabilities directly into the debug workflow. It supports a wide target voltage range from 1.8V to 5V and provides 100mA of output current to power the target board during development.

Applications

Power Optimization
Utilizing EnergyTrace technology to profile power consumption of low-power MCUs in real-time.
Embedded Software Debugging
Step-through debugging and breakpoint management for TI SimpleLink, C2000, and Sitara devices.
In-System Programming
High-speed firmware flashing for production and development environments using JTAG or SWD interfaces.
System Telemetry
Using the auxiliary 14-pin connector to monitor UART, I2C, and ADC channels alongside standard debug signals.
