ATMEL-ICE Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Atmel ATMEL-ICE is a JTAG interface tool recommended for designing application PCBs that include an Atmel AVR with JTAG capabilities. It supports both 100-mil and 50-mil pinout variants, depending on the specific kit's cabling and adapters.

 

The pinout includes essential signals for debugging: TCK (Test Clock), TMS (Test Mode Select), TDI (Test Data In), TDO (Test Data Out), nTRST (Test Reset), nSRST (Reset), VTG (Target Voltage Reference), and GND (Ground). Connecting the nSRST pin is recommended to allow the Atmel-ICE to hold the target device in a reset state, which is crucial for certain debugging scenarios. The VTG pin provides a target voltage reference, with the Atmel-ICE drawing minimal current from it. Both GND pins must be connected to ensure a common ground reference between the debugger and the target device.

 

This debugger is designed to facilitate efficient development and debugging of embedded systems utilizing Atmel AVR microcontrollers. Its robust pinout and recommended connection practices ensure reliable operation and effective troubleshooting during the development cycle.

ATMEL-ICE FAQs

6 frequently asked questions generated from this part’s specifications.
What is the function of the TCK (Test Clock) pin on the Atmel-ICE?

TCK is the test clock signal transmitted from the Atmel-ICE to the target device.

How does the Atmel-ICE handle target voltage level shifting?

The VTG pin samples the target voltage to power the level converters; the Atmel-ICE draws less than 3 mA in debugWire mode and less than 1 mA in other modes.

What is the purpose of the nSRST pin?

nSRST is used to reset the target device; connecting it allows the Atmel-ICE to hold the target in reset state, essential for some debugging scenarios.

What are the ground connections on the Atmel-ICE?

There are two ground pins (pin 2 and pin 10); both must be connected for proper operation.

Does the Atmel-ICE support JTAG debugging?

Yes, it has TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO pins for JTAG communication.

What is the nTRST pin for?

nTRST is optional and used to reset the JTAG TAP controller on some AVR devices.
