3.1.1 Target is Powered by External Supply

If the target is powered by an external supply (see figure below), the debugger will sense target VDD to allow level translation for the target low voltage operation. If the debugger does not sense voltage on its VDD line (pin 2 of the interface connector), it will not operate.

Note: A target powered by an external supply may power the debugger during Programmer-To-Go operation.
