Do not use this. Instead, take a look at one of the cheap FT2232-based USB JTAG adapters which are natively supported by OpenOCD and are much faster than my old USB-AtmelPrg.

OpenOCD (open on-chip debugger) is a free project which enables you to debug programs running on an ARM microcontroller by providing the necessary glue between the GNU debugger (GDB) and the JTAG interface. It takes GDB commands, translates them into the corresponding JTAG waveforms which are then applied to the ARM's JTAG interface via an interface cable such as USB-AtmelPrg.

While OpenOCD natively supports several common JTAG interface cables, there is no built-in support for USB-AtmelPrg. Hence, the source code has to be patched to add this functionality.

You need three things:

• The OpenOCD source code. I'm using SVN revision FIXME which can be checked out (i.e. downloaded) in the following way: FIXME
• The USB-AtmelPrg host software.
• The following patch for OpenOCD to add USB-AtmelPrg as JTAG backend:
