1. JTAG hardware
-Currently, OpenOCD supports three types of JTAG interfaces:
+Currently, OpenOCD supports the following JTAG interfaces:
- Parallel port wigglers. These devices connect to a PC's parallel port,
providing direct access to the JTAG lines. The OpenOCD contains descriptions
layouts (i.e. mapping of parallel port pins to JTAG lines) can be added easily.
Typical Wiggler speeds are around 12kByte/s code download to an ARM7's RAM.
+The list of supported parallel port devices includes:
+
+ * Macraigor Wiggler JTAG cable
+ * Gateworks GW16012 JTAG programmer
+ * Xilinx DLC5 JTAG parallel cable III
+ * Ka-Ro TRITON starterkit II JTAG cable
+ * Lattice parallel port JTAG cable
+ * ST FlashLINK programming cable
+
- The Amontec JTAG Accelerator. This is a configuration for Amontec's Chameleon
dongle, a parallel port interface based on a Xilinx CoolRunner CPLD. It uses
the IEEE1284 EPP parallel port specification, providing many times the
The Signalyzer offers support for a wide variety of target voltages from 1.2V to
5.5V. A second connector provides access to a TTL level UART.

+* Turtelizer 2: http://www.ethernut.de/en/hardware/turtelizer/index.html
+Another USB JTAG programmer, with freely available schematics. It supports
+target voltages from 1.65V to 5.5V.

+* Hitex STR9-comSTICK: http://www.ehitex.de/p_info.php?products_id=292
+A STR912FW44x microcontroller "board" with USB and JTAG functionality.
+
+* Luminary Micro development board evb_lm3s811 JTAG interface.
+
+* ASIX PRESTO: http://www.asix-tools.com/prg_presto.htm
+The ASIX PRESTO is a USB JTAG programmer for a wide range of components, e.g.
+microcontrollers, serial EEPROM and Flash memory chips, CPLDs and others.
+
+* usbprog: http://www.embedded-projects.net/index.php?page_id=165
+The usbprog is a freely programmable USB adapter, which can (among other
+things) use a firmware which turns it into a JTAG programmer/debugger.

All FT2232 based devices may be accessed using either FTDI's proprietary FTD2XX
library (www.ftdichip.com) or using an open-source replacement from

- ARM922t
- ARM926ej-s
- ARM966e
+- Cortex-M3
Support for Intel XScale CPUs is also included:
- PXA25x
+- PXA27x
- IXP42x
-PXA27x debugging should be similar to the PXA25x but fails in the current
-version of OpenOCD.
-
+And support for the Marvell Feroceon CPU core as found in the
+Orion SOC family is included as well.

3. Host platforms
OpenOCD was originally developed on x86-Linux, but has since then been ported
-to run on Windows/Cygwin, native Windows with MinGW, FreeBSD, x86-64-Linux and
-PowerPC OS-X.
+to run on Windows/Cygwin, native Windows with MinGW, FreeBSD, IA64-Linux,
+AMD64-Linux, Alpha-Linux, ARM-Linux, and PowerPC OS-X.
