Tag-Connect™ replacement debug/programming cables save cost and space on every board!
Depending on your requirements, we offer 6-pin, 10-pin or 6-pin plus 10-pin target board connector solutions for debuggers fitted with a Cortex-20/MIPI-20 connector.
The 6-pin solution utilizing the TC2030-CTX-20 (legged) or TC2030-CTX-20-NL (no-legs) cables allows SWD debugging/programming using minimal PCB real estate.
For full traditional JTAG with pins 1-10 of the ULINK Pro’s MIPI-20 connector all connected to the target, use our Cortex-20/MIPI-20 to 10-pin Tag-Connect™ cables TC2050-IDC-050-ALL-20 (legged) or TC2050-IDC-NL-050-ALL-20 (no-legs).
For debuggers with ETM trace technology, our Extended Trace Mode cable, TC2030-CTX-ETM has a 6-pin Tag-Connect TC2030 connector for SWD signals as well as a 10-pin TC2050 connector which connects the trace signals on pins 11 through 20 of the MIPI-20 connector to your target board. Please Note: Be sure to follow manufacturer’s advice on signal integrity and termination during design and layout.
The 6-pin solution utilizes the TC2030-CTX-20 (legged) or TC2030-CTX-20-NL (no-legs) cables providing full JTAG/SWD debugging/programming capability using minimum PCB space.

Cortex 20 Pin to 6 Pin Plug-of-Nails™ - No Legs
PCB End: 6 Pin Plug-of-Nails™ No Legs
Debug End: 20 Pin IDC 0.05" Female (Mates with FTSH)
This Cortex programming cable is the same as the TC2030-CTX-NL cable except it has a 0.05" (1.27mm) pitch 20-pin connector compatible with i-Jet and ULINK pro. This won't fit the traditional 20-pin 0.1" connector such as found on the standard J-Link debuggers).
The cable itself has a ten pin ribbon cable and 6-pin TC2030-NL "No legs" Tag-Connect small footprint supporting ARM Cortex MCU's.
Note: Cable only supplied, IAR's I-JET and demo board not included!
This product is intended to temporarily hold a TC2030 -NL ("No Legs") cable in place on a PCB. This solution will help when board space is at a premium and you need a hands free solution for debugging. Supplied as pack of 3.
We recommend keeping a few spare of these since the tiny boards are easy to misplace when working on the bench.
For a more robust solution consider a TC2030 legged cable.

Cortex 20 Pin to 10 Pin Plug-of-Nail™ - No Legs
PCB End: 10 Pin Plug-of-Nails™ No Legs
Debug End: 20 Pin IDC 0.05" Female (Mates with FTSH)
The TC2050-IDC-NL-050-ALL-20 programming cable has an 0.050" pitch ribbon connector suitable for ULINK2 and similar debuggers that use the Samtec FTSH-110-01 style micro-header. This uses the "No Legs" version of the TC2050 connector, ideally suited to production where short board connection times are required but also suitable for development.
The pin connections are 1-1 and pins 1-10 are connected, pins 11-20 are not connected in the cable.
Please refer to TC2050-IDC-NL datasheet for the PCB footprint information.
This product is intended to temporarily hold a TC2050-NL cable in place on a PCB. The solution will help when board space is premium and you need to perform a hands-free programming or debugging operation. For a more robust and convenient debugging connection consider using the TC2050 legged cable and footprint. Supplied as pack of 3.
We recommend keeping a few spare of these since they are easily misplaced when working on the desktop. Over time they may lose some grip.

The pin connections are 1-1 and pins 1-10 are connected, pins 11-20 are not connected in the cable.
Please refer to TC2050-IDC datasheet for the PCB footprint information.
6-pin plus 10-pin SWD solution with ETM full trace capability
SWD testing/programming is provided via the 6-pin connector while full trace capability is provided via the 10-pin connector which is connected to pins 11 through 20 of the MIPI-20 connector.
Please Note: Be sure to follow manufacturer’s advice on signal integrity and termination during design and layout.
