 		 #94384 - JTAG is the INTERFACE ..
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Richard --

I think you're greatly confused.

JTAG is the INTERFACE to the debugger. The SiLabs debugger presents a nice GUI interface, as we said, complete with register and memory display, disassembly, hooks to C, etc.

The SBCs I referred to DO have a monitor ROM with debug controls. Its interface is over RS-232.

You still haven't indicated how you expect to communicate with your debugger!

When I mentioned that, "Most microcontroller projects use specific peripherals, and a debug monitor program would have to be built for each peripheral configuration. This means maintaining different versions for each product," you misunderstood me. The SBC monitor program I mentioned has standard commands and so forth (memory/register dump/modify, disassembly), but as more features were added to the products, the monitor program was updated to accomodate these new features. Things got complex when some SBCs had Feature X and others didn't.
