Firmware source for the Raspberry Pi Debug Probe SWD/UART accessory. Can also be run on a Raspberry Pi Pico.

Debug Probe documentation can be found in the Pico Getting Started Guide. See "Appendix A: Using the Debug Probe".
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.
If using an existing debugprobe clone:
- You must completely regenerate your build directory, or use a different one.
- You must also sync and update submodules as rp2350 needs a downstream FreeRTOS port for now.
PICO_SDK_PATH
must point to a version 2.0.0 or greater install.
git submodule sync
git submodule update --init
mkdir build-pico2
cd build-pico2
cmake -DDEBUG_ON_PICO=1 -DPICO_BOARD=pico2 -DPICO_PLATFORM=rp2350 ../
- AutoBaud selection, as PIO is a capable frequency counter
- Possibly include RTT support
