Active Probes
Active Probes offer higher debugging and tracing solutions across various architectures with their adaptable design.
Their compact size allows a smooth integration even in confined spaces, while their robust design guarantees durability.Moreover, Active Probes allow for remote positioning up to 10m away from the BlueBox, providing flexibility in setup and placement. By connecting Active Probes to iC7max, you can synchronize their control, facilitating simultaneous debugging, testing, tracing, and profiling of applications running on different or identical architectures.
For detailed information about Active Probes, refer to the following Hardware User Manuals:

For a detailed visual presentation of the hardware setup and configuration, refer to the Getting started tutorial. |
For BlueBox Solutions with specific Microcontrollers Architecture, refer to:
mDIO
The mDIO port is located on the side of the iC7 BlueBox Debugger family or a specific Active Probe. It provides digital signals, which can interact with the embedded target.
|
The mDIO cable is used to connect the Active Probe mDIO port with the signals around the debugged microcontroller, which can then be either read or controlled by the debugger. For example, the debugger can periodically service an external watchdog through the mDIO output or just read and record an external signal through the mDIO input. It must be ordered separately. The length of the cable is 20 cm.
