USB-ML-UNIVERSAL-FX
Multilink Models & Features
Models
There are 3 models of Multilink:
MULTILINK ACP MULTILINK UNIVERSAL LC MULTILINK UNIVERSAL FX
Standard Features
All Multilink debug probes offer these standard features:
- USB interface from PC to Multilink allows for fast, easy programming and debugging — with the ease and compatibility of the USB interface.
- Draws power from USB interface– no separate power supply required (draws less than 1mA from the target).
- Works with target voltage: 1.8V-5.25V
- Supports JTAG daisy chaining of multiple ARM MCUs
- ARM device support includes both the JTAG and SWD protocols
- Includes USB cable, Type A Male to Type B Male, 6-ft.
“Universal” Features
MULTILINK UNIVERSAL LC and MULTILINK UNIVERSAL FX also include these features:
- Pipelined programming algorithms for some Power Architecture families that dramatically increase programming speed.
- Auto-frequency detection + trimming capabilities for HCS08 devices
- Auto-frequency detection for HC(S)12(X) devices.
- Generates programming voltage on RESET line for RS08 devices.
- Target Frequency: 16Khz-50Mhz (applies to HCS08, RS08, CFV1, S12Z, or HCS12X only)
Advanced Features
MULTILINK UNIVERSAL FX supports these additional advanced features:
- High-speed USB interface from PC to Multilink allows for fast, easy programming and debugging — up to 10X faster than the other Multilink models.
- Can be used to power target MCU:
- Target Voltage: 3.3V, 5.0V
- I/O line clamping for added protection
Multilink Universal FX Performance Note
The exceptional performance increases seen with the USB Multilink Universal FX are limited to synchronous architectures: ARM devices, Kinetis, S32, MPC55xx-577xx (& STMicroelectronics SPC5), Coldfire V2-V4, DSC, MPC5xx/8xx, and HC16/683xx.
