#Atmel ice driver update#

Are you using a regular 10-way ribbon to standard Cortex SWD header ?

Is the ribbon plugged into the SAM socket or AVR socket ?Ģ. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.ġ. The box label says it's an Atmel ICE Basic from 2016.12.23Īm I going to need to buy another one? I really don't want to - they are super duper expensive. I can no longer read a known working SAMD21G or a new clean SAMD21G to program.

So now it doesn't matter what I do and what firmware I put on.

#Atmel ice driver update#

Downloaded the ICE firmware archive and rolled my FW back to a previous version (1.19) and plugged it back Ito the old desktop PC - it immediately asked to update it to (1.27), the version it was on pre plugging it into the laptop Grabbed a working board that had the boot-loader burned on it successfully ages ago and tried to burn it again Tried 3 different ribbon cables (I bought spares because I go through a lot of SAMDs) Tried plugging the power for the PCB into a wall socked (5V via micro-b) to ensure good power. Checked the boards thoroughly - beeped them out - check all voltages etc. Tried every USB port on both machines, tried 8 (or more) different USB cables

Pulled out old PC and tried on that (it's an older version of Studio 7.0) and tried on that So these are all of the things I've tried since. I get weird target voltages and an error saying 'can't read the device'. (v1.29) I did that, and now my ICE wont read the device properly of any of he SAMD21s on my new boards. I installed Atmel Studio 7 onto a Win10 laptop instead (Desktop was packed up into storage to save space) - and when I plugged in the ICE to program the SAMDs it told me I had to do a firmware update on the ICE to continue. This morning I needed to burn some boot loaders onto a bunch of SAMD21G18AUs on some new boards I made, and instead of pulling out my older PC that I've done this on 100's of times.
