DebugProbeMCULink

✓ from spsdk_mcu_link import DebugProbeMCULink

✗ from spsdk.mcu_link.debug_probe import MCULinkDebugProbe

Opens a default MCU-Link probe and prints its status. No authentication required as it uses local USB connection.

import os from spsdk.mcu_link.debug_probe import MCULinkDebugProbe # This will attempt to open the first available MCU-Link probe = MCULinkDebugProbe() print("Probe opened:", probe.is_opened())

Known issues

gotchaImport path uses dots (spsdk.mcu_link) not hyphens (spsdk-mcu-link). The PyPI package name does not match the Python module path.

fix

Use 'from spsdk.mcu_link...' instead of 'from spsdk_mcu_link...'.

affects: all

deprecatedThe class 'MCULinkDebugProbe' was renamed from 'MCULinkDebugProbe' (case?) in v0.6.0; check older documentation for possibly different class names.

fix

Use the latest class name from the official SPSDK MCU-Link documentation.

affects: <0.6.0

gotchaRequires Python >=3.9; may cause installation errors on older Python versions.

fix

Upgrade Python to 3.9 or later.

affects: all

gotchaOn Linux, udev rules may be required to access USB devices. Without them, the probe may not be detected.

fix

Install udev rules from the SPSDK documentation or the package extras (e.g., 'pip install spsdk-mcu-link[udev]' if available).
