More about Ronetix Development Tool GmbH

Ronetix offers high-performance development tools for embedded systems, including the PEEDI high-speed JTAG/BDM/SWD emulator and flash programmer. Their tools support a wide range of CPU platforms, including ARM Cortex, PowerPC, and ColdFire architectures. Ronetix also provides System on Module (SoM) solutions, offering time and cost-effective options for various processors like NXP i.MX series and Renesas RZ/G2UL

PEEDI: JTAG, SWD and BDM emulator and flash programmer

PEEDI (Powerful Embedded Ethernet Debug Interface) is Ronetix's JTAG/BDM/SWD emulator and flash programmer. It sits on your network, serves GDB to any PC that can reach it, and can also run flash programming scripts on its own from an SD card, so the same unit covers debugging on the bench and programming on the production line. Ronetix, an Austrian company based in Vienna, also makes the CPU modules and evaluation boards in this catalogue.

How PEEDI works

PEEDI connects to the target's debug port and to your Ethernet network, so any PC on that network can debug through it. The host runs GNU GDB (or an IDE such as Eclipse that uses GDB) and talks to PEEDI with the GDB remote protocol over TCP/IP. PEEDI translates those requests into JTAG, SWD or BDM signals, with a debug clock from 5 kHz to 33 MHz and automatic target voltage sensing from 1.2 V to 5 V. A telnet command line gives access to PEEDI's own commands, including flash programming.

One PEEDI serves GDB over the network, so a target on a remote or shared bench can be debugged from any PC.

Stand-alone flash programming without a PC

PEEDI can program a target's flash with no PC attached, using a configuration file and an image stored on a FAT-formatted MMC or SD card. The configuration file defines up to 15 scripts of PEEDI commands (for example erase, program and verify), and a script can start from the front-panel button or automatically as soon as a powered target is connected (the AUTORUN setting). The front-panel LED shows progress and error codes, and a speaker gives a beep on a fault.

Load the card once, then each board is programmed by connecting it and starting the script.

For set-up, files can be copied to the card with a card reader or transferred through PEEDI's telnet interface from a TFTP, FTP or HTTP server. Once the target configuration file is set to run from the card, the Ethernet cable can be removed. The flash multi command works on up to four targets at once, and the multicore programming licence (SW-MULTIPROG) enables programming of up to four boards in parallel.

Parallel programming of up to four boards with the SW-MULTIPROG licence
Evaluation of ARM9 designs with the AT91SAM9 starter kits and the PM9G45-C CPU module

Frequently asked questions

Can a PEEDI program flash without a PC?

Yes. PEEDI runs scripts from a configuration file on an SD or MMC card, starting from the front-panel button or automatically when a target is connected. The LED shows progress and error codes. See the PEEDI Programmer.

How do I debug through PEEDI?

Connect PEEDI to your network and the target, then point GDB (or Eclipse using GDB) at PEEDI's address. PEEDI uses the GDB remote protocol. The PEEDI Debugger includes this function.

Which target cable do I need?

Match the cable to the debug header on your board, for example the 20-pin Cortex, 20-pin ARM or 16-pin COP cable. If you are unsure, ask our engineers.

Can I program several boards at once?

Yes. The SW-MULTIPROG licence enables parallel flash programming of up to four boards from one PEEDI.

Which target voltages does PEEDI support?

PEEDI senses the target voltage automatically from 1.2 V to 5 V, and its debug clock runs from 5 kHz to 33 MHz.

What is the SW-PGM licence?

It is an additional flash programming licence for PEEDI covering Intel ARM7/9 and XScale. The one year software support option gives updates and technical assistance for that licence for a year.
