AUTO26 Debug Probe
Excellence for Automotive Projects
The AUTO26 Debug Probe was designed specifically for the use in automotive projects. Thanks to its state-of-the-art FPGA technology it can support a wide range of processor architectures and debug protocols with unprecedented performance. Furthermore, it offers additional control signals that are widely used in the automotive market.
With three different target connectors supplied as standard (10, 20 and 26 pin-count), it offers flexibility regarding the available number of pins on the target and the required functionality. The 10-pin version of the target connector is compatible with the MIPI standard. Additional adapters are available to connect the AUTO26 Debug Probe to targets with any kind of debug connector.
Best Control over Your Automotive Target
The AUTO26 debug probe is the result of Lauterbach’s 30+ years of experience in supporting automotive applications. It supports additional signals that fulfill special needs in automotive applications. This functionality is not supported by conventional debug probes.
Watchdog disable
The watchdog disable pin allows to debug targets that are equipped with a hardware watchdog timer, without modification of the target board. It can permanently disable the watchdog as well as control the watchdog based on the core state.
Second reset pin
Some chips have several reset pins, for example dedicated reset-in and reset-out pins. With the second reset pin, the debugger is able to fully monitor the processor’s reset states. This enables features like debugging through reset.
Dedicated pins for debug port arbitration
In automotive applications, the debug port is often shared between debugger and third-party tools like calibration and prototyping tools. The debug port arbitration pins allow to share the debug port with these tools. Having dedicated pins means that debug port arbitration is possible without repurposing other pins and thus keep their original functionality.
Trigger pins (1 in / 1 out)
The trigger pins are used to send external events to the SoC or to propagate SoC events to other tools like oscilloscopes.

Supports TriCore, PCP and GTM debugging included. Supports JTAG, DAP, DXCPL, DXCM. Supports DAP streaming under certain conditions (see below). Includes the TRACE32 software for Windows, Linux and macOS on DVD and for download. Requires PowerDebug Interface USB 2.0/USB 3.0, PowerDebug Ethernet, PowerTrace Ethernet, PowerDebug II, PowerDebug PRO, PowerDebug E40 or PowerDebug X50. Requires LA-3849 if 16 pin JTAG (TriCore) connector is used. DAP Streaming is supported if you use the device with a PowerDebug PRO,E40, or X50 and your PowerView software is version R.2023.09 or newer (build 160619 or higher). If these requirements are met, DAP Streaming is possible only in DAP mode (DAP2, DAP3, DAPWide, DAP4). For performance reasons, we recommend DAPWide at 320 MHz. Trace display and analysis (based on DAP streaming, onchip-buffers, or a PowerTrace) requires LA-3799X (Trace License for TriCore ED). For DXCPL/DXCM you will probably also need the CAN-Box (LA-3889).
Supports RH850 via JTAG, LPD4 ICU-M core support included supports V850 via NWIRE Includes software for Windows, Linux and macOS. Requires PowerDebug E40/X50, PowerDebug II or PRO, PowerDebug Interface USB 2.0/USB 3.0, PowerDebug Ethernet, PowerTrace Ethernet. Debug cable with 26 pin connector. Includes LA-2700 (Conv. AUTO26 to JTAG14 RH850) Voltage range 0.9V to 5.5V
Supports Qorivva MPC5xxx/SPC5xxx (e200 cores) and Freescale PX SERIES processors. eTPU, GTM and SPT debugging included. Concurrent debugging of multiple e200 cores on multicore processors requires a License for Multicore Debugging (LA-7960X) (not necessary for lockstep mode). Includes software for Windows, Linux and macOS. Requires PowerDebug E40/X50, PowerDebug II or PRO, PowerDebug Interface USB 2.0/USB 3.0, PowerDebug Ethernet, PowerTrace Ethernet. Includes LA-3873 (Conv. AUTO26 to JTAG14 OnCE) Voltage range 0.9V to 5.5V
Supports dsPIC33C (0.9 V - 5.5 V) Debugging of dual-core dsPIC requires LA-2762 Package for CombiProbe 2 dsPIC Dual Core Includes software for Windows, Linux and macOS. Requires Power Debug Interface USB 2.0/USB 3.0, Power Debug Ethernet, Power Debug II, PowerDebug PRO, PowerDebug E40 or PowerDebug X50
