&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;e14 sells&amp;nbsp;several debugger, e.g.: this affordable one:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a id="e14-product-link-66edd" class="e14-embedded e14_shopping-cart-far e14-link" href="https://referral.element14.com/OrderCodeView?fsku=3585711&amp;amp;nsku=92AH8467&amp;amp;COM=e14c-noscript&amp;amp;CMP=e14c-noscript&amp;amp;osetc=e14-noscript-tracking-loss" data-at-areainteracted="rte-content" data-at-type="click" data-at-link-type="link" data-at-label="PRODUCT_POPUP_OPEN" data-farnell="3585711" data-newark="92AH8467" data-comoverride="" data-cmpoverride="" data-cpc="" data-avnetemea="" data-avnetema="" data-avnetasia="" target="_blank" data-e14adj="t"&gt;MCU-LINK Debugger Probe&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span&gt; .&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That&amp;#39;s the one I use too (I believe the one on your dev-board may be functionally identical). It needs a fine-pitched cable, I think it did come with that (can&amp;#39;t recall for sure) but I ended up soldering wires to pin headers. The yellow/orange wires in the photo are for the USB-UART, that comes in handy.&lt;/p&gt;
