NXP MCUXpresso IDE: Advanced Debugging Now with PEmicro GDB Server

NXP’s has launched the MCUXpresso Integrated Development Environment for LPC and Kinetis microcontrollers with PEmicro’s GDB Server fully integrated.

Quick Answer

NXP's MCUXpresso Integrated Development Environment now fully integrates PEmicro’s GDB Server, significantly enhancing debug capabilities for LPC and Kinetis microcontrollers. This integration provides advanced features such as hardware breakpoints, watchpoints, real-time variables, semihosting, and FreeRTOS awareness. It leverages PEmicro’s Multilink, Cyclone, and embedded OpenSDA debug interfaces to offer comprehensive debugging solutions. This update allows developers to attach to a running target, provide target power, and perform remote debugging.

This provides advanced debug capabilities via PEmicro’s Multilink, Cyclone, and embedded OpenSDA debug interfaces including: hardware breakpoints, watchpoints, real-time variables, semihosting, FreeRTOS awareness, the ability to attach to a running target, the ability to provide target power, remote debug, and more.
