Documentation

Debug Probe documentation can be found in the Pico Getting Started Guide. See "Appendix A: Using the Debug Probe".

Hacking

For the purpose of making changes or studying of the code, you may want to compile the code yourself.

First, clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/raspberrypi/debugprobe
cd debugprobe

Initialize and update the submodules:

 git submodule update --init

Then create and switch to the build directory:

 mkdir build
 cd build

If your environment doesn't contain PICO_SDK_PATH, then either add it to your environment variables with export PICO_SDK_PATH=/path/to/sdk or add PICO_SDK_PATH=/path/to/sdk to the arguments to CMake below.

Run cmake and build the code:

 cmake ..
 make

Done! You should now have a debugprobe.uf2 that you can upload to your Debug Probe via the UF2 bootloader.

If you want to create the version that runs on the Pico, then you need to invoke cmake in the sequence above with the DEBUG_ON_PICO=ON option:

cmake -DDEBUG_ON_PICO=ON ..

This will build with the configuration for the Pico and call the output program debugprobe_on_pico.uf2, as opposed to debugprobe.uf2 for the accessory hardware.

Note that if you first ran through the whole sequence to compile for the Debug Probe, then you don't need to start back at the top. You can just go back to the cmake step and start from there.

TODO

  • AutoBaud selection, as PIO is a capable frequency counter
  • Possibly include RTT support
