“Neat little debugger, comes with a good selection of leads.
The only issue compared to building one your self is there is no way to power the target board from it as far as I can see.”
“This is the second debug probe I have bought from Pimoroni and it is super-useful. My original one is still in regular use and this one will join its sister on my prototyping bench, connected to the Pi400 that I use for general development.”
“Works pretty much as expected, wasn't sure what cables came with it and, as my Pico doesn't have a JTAG connector on it, I ended buying a separate JTAG to pins cable. Up on arrival I discovered the probe came with a cable with a JTAG on one end and sockets on the other that you could use with jumper cables or header pins, so I didn't really need to buy the extra cable.
Either way good to have a spare”
“The debug probe is a very useful piece of kit and works well. I particularly like that I can upload a new program to the working pico without the need to disconnect the USB and press the deploy button. The debug probe also works well in the Visual Studio Code IDE and provides useful information while stepping through code. Highly recommended.”
“I know I could make one with a Pico but this is so neat and has all the cables... well worth it!
The one thing I'd say is that for this it would be worth having a more solid box (maybe even plastic!) to store it and the cables in.”
