The CodeWarrior TAP enables NXP target system debugging via a standard debug port (usually JTAG) while connected to a developer"s workstation via Ethernet or USB. The CodeWarrior TAP may also be referred to by industry standard terms such as probe, JTAG probe, JTAG emulator or target probe. Using the CodeWarrior TAP"s Ethernet connection, developers can debug systems remotely or more effectively share a single system with multiple developers. When a shared system is not needed, CodeWarrior TAP connects directly to the developer"s workstation with a single USB cable. Power is supplied by the USB port so that no additional cables are needed. The CodeWarrior TAP is designed to work in conjunction with NXP CodeWarrior development tools and NXP processors. It is a critical debug tool in all phases of the project and is necessary for debugging systems prior to running a fully debugged operating system.
