Versaloon

Versaloon is a multi-function developping tool, which can support OpenOCD,
support many MCU/Memory using USB_TO_XXX, support a CDC and a MSC.

OpenOCD support, CDC and MSC, USB_TO_XXX is distributed under GPLv3 license.

Note:
Firmware update is available. To use the current vsprog, please update the firmware using the STM32_ISP(with internal USB bootloader). Mail me if any problem.
Product shipped before Aug 6 2010 will need to update firmware to use the latest vsprog/vsgui. After this update, blacklist to cdc_acm will be no longer needed under Linux.

Need testers for the Versaloon SWD driver in OpenOCD. I have published the preview patch for the OpenOCD, add SWD support and use the latest dirver for Versaloon. It's tested OK on STM32F103C8 and LPC1766. Check Versaloon driver in OpenOCD. I need more feedbacks on this patch.

I'm looking for a agent/reseller for Versaloon in Europe. According to some customers, the shipping cost is too high for low-cost Versaloon. If you are interesting in this tool, and can sell it in the world, please mail me.

Supported Target:
All targets supported by OpenOCD(Note2)
STM32_JTAG/SWD/ISP(Note3)
LPC1000_JTAG/SWD/ISP(Note3)
LM3S_JTAG/SWD(Note3)
AT91SAM3(Note3), need more test
STM8_SWIM(Note1)
AVR_ISP/JTAG
89S51_ISP
C8051F_JTAG/C2
LPC900_ICP
MSP430_JTAG(without TEST pin)
PSoC1_ISSP
CPLD/FPGA_JTAG(by svf)

Note1: To use SWIM, you will have to remove 5.1V ZD on TMS, that is D84 in MiniRelease1
Note2: For the comming OpenOCD0.5.0 release, firmware of Versaloon should be updated, SWD support will be added in this verison.
Note3: To use fastest SWD, you will have to remove 5.1V ZD on TMS, that is D84 in MiniRelease1
