Following on from the RT1060: Enabling faster flashing article which discusses how to enable the advanced LPC-Link2 JTAG debugger features on the i.MXRT1060EVK board I was inspired to explore how we could make good use of this with Storyboard applications.
If you are prototyping on the RT106x board than you are likely familiar with the process of flashing an application to hardware or dragging and dropping our demo image into the board via the usb-serial connection. By default the RT106x boards come with an LPC-Link2 probe using an OpenSDA debug probe image. Drag and drop programming is great for ease of use when deploying one of our prebuild demo images but that functionality comes with a performance cost and lack of SWO trace functionality.
