Tracing on NXP i.MX6ULL
This section describes how to get started with trace on the NXP i.MX6ULL MCUs. This section assumes that there is already a basic knowledge about trace in general (what is trace, what different implementations of trace are there, etc.). If this is not the case, we recommend to read Trace chapter in the J-Link User Manual (UM08001).
Some of the examples are shipped with a compiled .JLinkScriptfile (extension .pex), should you need the original source, please get in touch with SEGGER directly via our support system: https://www.segger.com/ticket/.
To create your own .JLinkScriptfile you can use the following guide as reference: How_to_configure_JLinkScript_files_to_enable_tracingMinimum requirements
In order to use trace on the NXP i.MX6ULL MCU devices, the following minimum requirements have to be met:
- J-Link software version V8.10 or later
- Ozone V3.36 or later (if streaming trace and / or the sample project from below shall be used)
- J-Link Plus V12 or later for TMC/ETB trace
To rebuild the project our IDE Embedded Studio can be used. The recommended version to rebuild the projects is V8.16. But the examples are all prebuild and work out-of-the box with Ozone, so rebuilding is not necessary.
The project below has been tested with the minimum requirements mentioned above and a MCIMX6UL-EVKB.
- Example project: NXP_iMX6ULL_TraceExample.zip
Trace buffer (TMC/ETB)
Open the *_TraceBuffer.jdebug project contained in the example project in Ozone.
