I was given a atmel SAM-ICE which is used on the atmel arm 7
controller. I wonder will it work with the nxp evaluation boards ? I
am thinking about getting a keil eval board.
Will it work ?
Thanks!

Will atmel SAM-ICE work on the nxp microcontroller board

Hi:
The SAM-ICE won't work with NXP processors. It is a limited JTAG
debugger only for Atmel MCU.
I would suggest get a JLINK(IAR) or ULINK2(Keil).

Or, you can go the route of the OpenOCD + a USB JTAG unit for < $80.

It worked well for me on a Mandriva Linux box. I'm sure that you could
put something similar together for a windows box as well, and as
cheaply. I would suggest you forgo a wiggler if you can afford it.
