Setting up with J-Link

The Raspberry Pi Pico evaluation board comes with an external SWD debug connector (3 pins: SWCLK, GND, SWDIO). To set the board up with J-Link, the following steps are required:

1. Solder a 3-pin pin strip to the debug connector pads.

2. Solder a pin Strip to the GPIO pads of the evaluation board. The relevant pad is Pad 36 (3V3(OUT))

3. Connect the J-Link to the evaluation board, using jumper wires as follows:

   Pin RP Pico	Pin J-Link	Signal
   "DEBUG" SWCLK	9	SWCLK
   "DEBUG" GND	4	GND
   "DEBUG" SWDIO	7	SWDIO
   Pad 36	1	VTref

Note: For a more reliable, simpler solution, the SEGGER Flying Wire Adapter is recommended.
