Description:
pyedbglib 2.24.2.18
pyedbglib - Python EDBG protocol library
pyedbglib is a low-level protocol library for communicating with Microchip CMSIS-DAP based debuggers
Overview
pyedbglib is available:
install using pip from pypi: https://pypi.org/project/pyedbglib
browse source code on github: https://github.com/microchip-pic-avr-tools/pyedbglib
read API documentation on github: https://microchip-pic-avr-tools.github.io/pyedbglib
Usage
pyedbglib is a library which can be used by Python applications to communicate with Microchip microcontrollers via Microchip CMSIS-DAP based debuggers.
The protocol is documented in the EDBG communication protocol.
Supported debuggers
pyedbglib supports:
PKOB nano (nEDBG) - on-board debugger on Curiosity Nano
MPLAB PICkit 4 In-Circuit Debugger (when in 'AVR mode')
MPLAB Snap In-Circuit Debugger (when in 'AVR mode')
Atmel-ICE
Power Debugger
EDBG - on-board debugger on Xplained Pro/Ultra
mEDBG - on-board debugger on Xplained Mini/Nano
JTAGICE3 (firmware version 3.0 or newer)
Note: Each debugger may implement a subset of protocols and commands.

from pyedbglib.hidtransport.hidtransportfactory import hid_transport
from pyedbglib.protocols.housekeepingprotocol import Jtagice3HousekeepingProtocol
from pyedbglib import __version__ as pyedbglib_version
# Report library version
print("pyedbglib version {}".format(pyedbglib_version))
# Make a connection using HID transport
transport = hid_transport()
transport.connect()
# Create a housekeeper
housekeeper = Jtagice3HousekeepingProtocol(transport)
housekeeper.start_session()
# Read out debugger firmware version
major = housekeeper.get_byte(Jtagice3HousekeepingProtocol.HOUSEKEEPING_CONTEXT_CONFIG,
Jtagice3HousekeepingProtocol.HOUSEKEEPING_CONFIG_FWREV_MAJ)
minor = housekeeper.get_byte(Jtagice3HousekeepingProtocol.HOUSEKEEPING_CONTEXT_CONFIG,

# Read out target voltage
target_voltage = housekeeper.get_le16(Jtagice3HousekeepingProtocol.HOUSEKEEPING_CONTEXT_ANALOG,
Jtagice3HousekeepingProtocol.HOUSEKEEPING_ANALOG_VTREF)
print ("Target voltage is {:.02f}V".format(target_voltage/1000.0))
# Tear down
housekeeper.end_session()
transport.disconnect()
Notes for Linux® systems
HIDAPI needs to build using packages: libusb-1.0.0-dev, libudev-dev
USB devices need udev rules to be added to a file in /etc/udev/rules.d
Example of udev rules for supported debuggers:
# HIDAPI/libusb:
# JTAGICE3
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="03eb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2140", MODE="0666"
# Atmel-ICE
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="03eb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2141", MODE="0666"
# Power Debugger
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="03eb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2144", MODE="0666"
# EDBG - debugger on Xplained Pro
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="03eb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2111", MODE="0666"
# EDBG - debugger on Xplained Pro (MSD mode)
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="03eb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2169", MODE="0666"
# mEDBG - debugger on Xplained Mini
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="03eb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2145", MODE="0666"
# PKOB nano (nEDBG) - debugger on Curiosity Nano
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="03eb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2175", MODE="0666"
# PKOB nano (nEDBG) in DFU mode - bootloader of debugger on Curiosity Nano
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="03eb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2fc0", MODE="0666"
# MPLAB PICkit 4 In-Circuit Debugger
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="03eb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2177", MODE="0666"
# MPLAB Snap In-Circuit Debugger
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="03eb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2180", MODE="0666"
pyedbglib also provides helper functions for accessing serial ports. The user has to be part of the 'dialout' group to allow this. This can be done by executing:
sudo adduser $USER dialout
It may also be necessary to grant read+write permission to the port, for example:
sudo chmod a+rw /dev/ttyACM0
