-Some years ago in 8-bit times when I was AVR fan, I have been aware sleek, low-footprint [[http://​tag-connect.com/​Materials/​TC2030-IDC.pdf|TagConnect]] Pogo pin interface for Programming and Debuging the MCUs, initially Microchip'​s PIC series, which made me a bit jealous and highly motivated me in buying them. It has [[http://​www.tag-connect.com/​legs-or-no-legs|two footprints]]:​ legged and no-legs (-NL suffix). The bigger one has hooks for holding in place, which is for comfortable debugging.+Some years ago in 8-bit times when I was AVR fan, I have been aware sleek, low-footprint [[http://​tag-connect.com/​Materials/​TC2030-IDC.pdf|TagConnect]] Pogo pin interface for Programming and Debuging the MCUs, initially Microchip'​s PIC series, which made me a bit jealous and highly motivated me in buying them.

 As you can see, the board contains selectable 1117-style 3.3V/0.3A LDO, as well as all JTAG pins placed conveniently on a header, which may be nice to have. Heck, you can even ignore the TagConnect and use the board as a PSU + debug interface. As you can see, the board contains selectable 1117-style 3.3V/0.3A LDO, as well as all JTAG pins placed conveniently on a header, which may be nice to have.

 +===== Powering the target board externally =====
 +
 +The board has now external power. To enable the power permanently,​ follow this procedure (probably Windows only):
 +  * Connect J-Link to the PC via USB
 +  * Start J-Link Commander (JLink.exe)
 +  * Enter the "power on perm" command without quotes to enable target power by default.
 +
 +===== Board available for sale ======
 +
 +Revision 4 board is available now. It has resistor-programmable LDO (pre-programmed for 3.3 V operation) for external power, RJ12 and IDC sockets. You can buy it at my [[https://​www.tindie.com/​products/​bitsmith/​cortex-m-jtag-interface-extender/​|Tindie store]].
