Cortex Debug Connector with Trace

ATSAME54P20A supports 4-bit parallel trace. SAM E54 Xplained Pro implements a 20-pin, 50-mil Cortex Debug + ETM Connector with SWD and 4-bit parallel trace. The connector is keyed (pin 7 is removed).

To use the parallel trace functionality an external debugger with trace support and 20-pin Cortex Debug + ETM Connector pin-out has to be used. The table below shows the connections on the kit.
