Hi,

We are designing WICED application with STM32+CYW43438.

We will make our board as CoB and there will be test point to connect JTAG and UART of STM32 for debugging.

In order to debug with WICED studio, I think we will buy FTDI chipset board like following link and change setting by attached file.

Then, connect JTAG pins to test point that is connected to STM32 JTAG pins.

Is my understanding correct?

Thank you.

From your document, the "WICED USB JTAG Port" and "WICED USB Serial Port" can be seen so the procedure looks correct. Regarding JTAG connection between STM32 and FTDI, please refer to the schematics of BCM943438WCD1 available at /43xxx_Wi-Fi/platforms/BCM943438WCD1/schematics and BCM9WCD9EVAL1 schematics available at /43xxx_Wi-Fi/platforms/evaluation_boards/BCM9WCD9EVAL1/schematics.

If you are planning to sell your boards with FTDI parts, please do not use Cypress Vendor ID. Please refer to this blog post https://community.cypress.com/community/wiced-wifi/wiced-wifi-forums/blog/2014/06/06/wiced-ftdi-chip... for more information.
