17.7 Programming and Debug Ports
For programming and/or debugging the SAM R30, the device should be connected using the Serial Wire Debug, SWD, interface. Currently the SWD interface is supported by several Microchip and third party programmers and debuggers, like the Atmel-ICE, SAM-ICE or SAM R30 Xplained Pro (SAM R30 evaluation kit) Embedded Debugger.
Refer to the Atmel-ICE, SAM-ICE or SAM R30 Xplained Pro user guides for details on debugging and programming connections and options. For connecting to any other programming or debugging tool, refer to that specific programmer or debugger’s user guide.
The SAM R30 Xplained Pro evaluation board supports programming and debugging through the onboard embedded debugger so no external programmer or debugger is needed.
