    BDI2000 can be updated by the user with a simple Windows / Linux config- uration program. The BDI2000 supports 1.8 – 5.0 Volts target systems (3.0 – 5.0 Volts target systems with Rev. A/B). © Copyright 1997-2005 by ABATRON AG Switzerland V 1.17...

  • Page 7 The BDI2000 works also with targets which have no dedicated TRST pin. For this kind of targets, the BDI cannot force the target to debug mode immediately after reset. The target always begins execu- tion of application code until the BDI has finished programming the Debug Control Register. © Copyright 1997-2005 by ABATRON AG Switzerland V 1.17...

  • Page 11: Connecting The Bdi2000 To Power Supply

    The BDI2000 needs to be supplied with 5 Volts (max. 1A) via the BDI OPTION connector (Rev. A) or via POWER connector (Rev. B/C). The available power supply from Abatron (option) or the en- closed power cable can be directly connected. In order to ensure reliable operation of the BDI2000, keep the power supply cable as short as possible.

    The bdiGDB system uses TFTP to access the configuration file and to load the application program. Because there is no TFTP server bundled with Windows NT, Abatron provides a TFTP server appli- cation tftpsrv.exe. This WIN32 console application runs as normal user application (not as a system service).
