keeping Segger J-Link suite in sync with J-Link OB-SAM3U128-V2-NordicSemi

[venerley]

I came across this a while ago, however it gives no indication as what releases, of Segger J-Link suite, each  nordic J-Link OB download has been tested with.

Is there page giving Nordics recommendations? would save developers time.

Hi Steve,

 

J-Link OB-SAM3U128-V2-NordicSemi 170724 based on pretty old Segger Jlink driver. We don't keep track of newer Jlink release. One JLink version that had been used for testing was v6.16.c you can update the JLink OB to this version.

Do you have any issue with the Jlink firmware ?

[venerley]

No issue currently have had multiple issues and wasted loads of time in the past.

currently using:

Firmware: J-Link OB-SAM3U128-V2-NordicSemi compiled Jan 12 2018 16:05:20 which seems to work ok with JLink_V622g &V6.10m but not JLink_V630h.

So would be a customer for the compatibility information if it was available.

Could you let me know what was the issue with v630h ? 

[venerley]

Sorry Hung only just seen your reply. Have just rerun with 630h and unfortunately the message is not helpful:

Have you updated the OB firmware with the firmware comes with  JLink_V630h ? (replace our  OB-SAM3U128-V2-NordicSemi)
