Product details
Overview
SPC5-UDESTK-EVAL from STMicroelectronics is a USB/JTAG debug and programming adapter for SPC5x automotive microcontrollers, compliant with IEEE 1149.1, supporting multicore eTPU debugging, on-chip FLASH erase/program/verify, and real-time status LEDs for IO voltage, connection, and running state.
For engineers reviewing the SPC5-UDESTK-EVAL datasheet, SPC5-UDESTK-EVAL pinout, SPC5-UDESTK-EVAL application, or SPC5-UDESTK-EVAL equivalent, this kit enables cost-efficient software development, flash programming, and HLL debugging of SPC5x MCUs via PLS UDE and ST's free SPC5Studio IDE under Windows 10/8/7.
Technical Context
The SPC5-UDESTK-EVAL implements a full IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary-scan interface with USB 2.0 host connectivity, enabling real-time debug control of SPC5x cores including dual-core configurations. It integrates target monitor firmware for high-speed communication and supports flash programming with verify cycles at device-native voltage levels (1.2 V to 5 V).
It delivers a perpetual, full-feature debugger license limited to 256 kB code size, and interoperates with PLS UDE v5.5+ and ST's SPC5Studio IDE. Multicore eTPU debugging is supported on low- and mid-end SPC5x devices per release notes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| JTAG Compliance | Fully compliant with IEEE 1149.1 standard for boundary-scan testing and debug access. |
| Host Interface | USB 2.0 Type-A to mini-B cable required; no external power supply needed. |
| Target Support | SPC56, SPC57, and other SPC5x automotive MCUs with JTAG/SWD debug ports. |
| Debug Capability | Real-time HLL debugging, source-level stepping, register/memory inspection, and multicore eTPU debug (low/mid-end devices only). |
| FLASH Programming | On-chip FLASH erase, program, and verify functions integrated into UDE workflow. |
| Licensing | Perpetual, full-feature license included, capped at 256 kB executable code size. |

FAQ
Does SPC5-UDESTK-EVAL require additional software licenses to operate?
Yes - it includes a perpetual, full-feature license with a 256 kB code-size limit. Unlimited code-size licenses (SPC5-UDEDEBG-TL for one year or SPC5-UDEDEBG perpetual) are optional add-ons requiring separate purchase and activation via pls-mc.com.
Which operating systems are supported for SPC5-UDESTK-EVAL host operation?
Windows 10, Windows 8, and Windows 7 (32- and 64-bit) are officially supported. No Linux or macOS drivers or UDE integration are provided by ST or PLS for this adapter.
Can SPC5-UDESTK-EVAL debug GTM peripherals on SPC5x MCUs?
No - GTM debugging was removed from SPC5-UDESTK functionality as of revision 2 (June 2013) per DB1958 Rev 13. Only eTPU multicore debug remains supported on qualifying low- and mid-end SPC5x devices.
Is SPC5-UDESTK-EVAL compatible with ST's SPC5Studio IDE?
Yes - it is fully integrated with ST's free SPC5Studio IDE (v5.0+), which provides project setup, build automation, and seamless launch of PLS UDE debugger sessions targeting SPC5x hardware via the adapter.
