Hello 

we have a customized having stm32f769bitb MCU. i am able to connect JTAG in hotplug mode but when im trying normal and other mode i m getting error as 'cant reset the core'. also i tried connect under reset im getting the same error. the custom board has schematic similar to stm32f769i eval board. can anybody suggest where could be the problem??

i am able to see the power supplies are also ok providing 3.3v as well as 5v.

thanks in advance.

BOOT0 should be low for normal operation.

Do you connect NRST to your debug header?

Is NRST driven (push-pull) by anything else in your system/design?

Supply to AVDD?

Voltage at VCAP pins?

Correct capacitance placed at VCAP, low ESR, close to device?

Similar, but not same, perhaps highlight the differences and illuminate us?

- yes NRST connected to debug header, no push pull

VCAP has low ESR and closed to device, correct capacitance as per the evaluation board schematics.

voltage at vcap couldnt measure. kindly suggest what else i can see.

For external debug pods make sure VTarget pin is powered if those pods have drivers/buffers.

What make/model of debug pod? Using ST-Link or J-Link utilities? OpenOCD?

Not really looking to debug custom designs through a key-hole.
