    Overview

    SEGGER has a wide variety of standard and proprietary connectors for its Flasher, J-Link, and J-Trace products. Various targets can be connected to these adapters. The principal types of adapters are active adapters (including measurement, signal smoothing, and power supply functionalities), passive adapters, and needle adapters.

    Active Adapters

    5V Target Supply Adapter

    The 5V Target Supply Adapter provides a supply voltage of 5 V to the target board. It has a standard 20-pin 0.1" socket towards the J-Link or Flasher and a standard 20-pin 0.1" header on the target side and can directly be inserted between the J-Link or Flasher and the debug cable maintaining a 1:1 connection of all debug signals. The supply voltage is fixed to 5 V.

    Measurement+Patch Adapter

    The Measurement+Patch Adapter provides test points for all debug signals to allow easy access for test probes. It has a standard 20-pin 0.1" socket towards the J-Link or Flasher and a standard 20-pin 0.1" header on the target side and can directly be inserted between the J-Link or Flasher and the debug cable maintaining a 1:1 connection of all debug signals.

    Measurement+Patch Adapter

    Programming Voltage Adapter

    The Programming Voltage Adapter delivers two externally provided voltages to the target for programming targets with voltage requirements beyond 5 V. It can directly be inserted between the Flasher and the debug cable maintaining a 1:1 connection of all debug signals.

    More information...

    Programming Voltage Adapter

    Relay Adapter

    The Relay Adapter switches off Flasher signals on the target side by means of relay contacts, ensuring complete disconnection from the target which is especially important in production setups with automated test equipment.

    Signal Smoothing Adapter

    The Signal Smoothing Adapter can be inserted between the J-Link or Flasher and the debug target to overcome signal integrity issues. Depending on target load capacitance JTAG signals might be affected by overshoot and ringing. In this case user adjustable series resistors (default 47R) allow for damping critical signal rise/fall times leading to improved signal integrity.

    Signal Smoothing Adapter

    Supply Adapter

    The Supply Adapter provides a fixed I/O voltage level for VTRef. It eliminates the need to connect VTRef (pin1) to the target. In general, the target provides its I/O voltage level (VTRef) on pin 1 to the debug probe insuring the debug probe uses the right I/O voltages and avoiding damage of the target debug pins. For increased flexibility the Supply Adapter can adapt to other target voltages in the range from 1.2 V to 5.0  V by replacing a single resistor on the adapter (soldering required, resistor package SMD 0603).

    Target Supply Adapter

    The Target Supply Adapter provides an adjustable supply voltage to the target board. It has a standard 20-pin 0.1" socket towards the J-Link or Flasher and a standard 20-pin 0.1" header on the target side and can directly be inserted between the J-Link or Flasher and the debug cable maintaining a 1:1 connection of all debug signals.
