Abstract
According to an embodiment, a system is provided that includes a debugging tool and an application board. The debugging tool includes a serial wire debug (SWD) host coupled to a single signal debug port (SSDP) host. The application board includes an SWD target coupled to an SSDP target. The SWD target is configured to communicate SWD signals with the SWD host. The SSDP target is configured to encode the SWD signals to SSDP signals for communication over a Controller Area Network (CAN) Bus between the application board and the debugging tool. The SSDP signals are pulse-width modulation (PWM) encoded signals of the SWD signals. An SWD clock signal generated by the SWD host is the carrier signal for the PWM encoded signals. The SSDP target is configured to decode the SSDP signals received from the SSDP host over the CAN Bus to the SWD signals.
