    I'm evaluating the IAR Workbench IDE with Jlink (JTAG) probe for the LH79520. I'm using windows XP. I'am unable to connect to the target. Error dialogs indicate the JTAG probe is unable to correctly communicate with the ARM core.

    I've tried various target connections from the IAR options dialog without success.

    Have you tried setting the jumpers on J6 to short pins 1,3 and 4,6? That will put the processor in JTAG mode.

    Yes I have set the jumpers, - I should have mentioned that in the post. The J6 jumpers are the only jumpers I configured on the board.

    Next step would be to check the pinout of the IAR JTAG cable to make sure it is the same as the J36 header on the SDK baseboard. The signals names can be found on the SDK schematics page 9. http://www.logicpd.com/do...lce-app-10_Rev_H.pdf

    If they look good, the next step would be to verify the LH79520's required nRESETIN and nTRST timing versus what the IAR outputs. Most JTAG devices allow for timing modifications to be made to the nRESET/nTRST signals to be adaptable to multiple processors.

    Have you contacted IAR to find out if they have successfully made their device work with the LH79520 ARM 7 processor?

    I spoke to a customer of IAR that has used jLink with the Sharp LH79520. My version and his may be different and/or possibly I'm missing something in my setup. When he returns from a field trip later this week I will look into this.

    I'm verifying the JTAG pinout and timeouts.

    Thanks very much for your suggestions.

    After securing the JTAG connector the download works fine.

    I have downloaded Micrium's uC/OS RTOS and their network stack using IAR's embedded workbench IDE. The development tools, RTOS and network stack are working just fine.

    Hi Nick,

    I started to work SDK 79520 and IAR J_Link, please more explain about the connection and softwares.
    What's mean securing?

    Hello Masood,

    IAR has experience working with our kits with their tools. I'd recommend contacting their support department for more information in this regard. I personally don't have any information about using these tools but I do know that many customers are using them with our kits.

    Thanks,
