Raspberry Pi SC0889 Debug Probe

Raspberry Pi SC0889 Debug Probe Description

The Raspberry Pi Debug Probe SC0889 is an inexpensive, all-in-one USB to serial debug and UART bridge. It provides the necessary hardware and cabling to support "plug and play" debugging of Raspberry Pi Pico and other microcontroller- and microprocessor-based platforms.

The Raspberry Pi Debug Probe provides both a processor serial debug interface (default is the ARM Serial Wire Debug interface) and an industry-standard UART interface. Both interfaces use the Raspberry Pi 3-pin debug connector, as specified in the Raspberry Pi 3-pin debug connector specification.

The Raspberry Pi Debug Probe is provided as a kit, containing the probe hardware in its own plastic case, and a set of cables: a USB cable, and three different types of debug cable, to cover the vast majority of debug use cases. Designed for easy debugging and programing of Raspberry Pi Pico and RP2040 with a range of host platforms, including Windows, Mac, and Linux.

While it has been designed primarily for use with Raspberry Pi debug targets, the Debug Probe provides standard CMSIS-DAP debug and UART interfaces over USB and can be used with other processors, or simply as a cost-effective USB-to-UART cable.

Based on the Raspberry Pi Pico hardware design, the Raspberry Pi Debug Probe runs the open-source Raspberry Pi Picoprobe software (https://github.com/raspberrypi/picoprobe). It is straightforward to keep the unit up to date with the latest Picoprobe firmware, or to use a custom firmware, as updating the firmware is done in the same way as on a Raspberry Pi Pico.
