Figure 7. 38-pin Mictor connector
Typically a Cortex-M3 or Cortex-M4 microcontroller only has 4-bit of trace data signals, so most of the trace data pins on the Mictor
connectors are not used. The Mictor connector is used mostly in other ARM Cortex processors (CortexA8/A9, Cortex-R4) or in
some multiprocessor systems the trace system might require a wider trace port. In such cases, some of the other unused pins
on the connector will also be used. For a typical Cortex-M3 or Cortex-M4 system, the Cortex Debug D ETM connector is
recommended.
