ARM DS5 debugger Access/Detection of CM55 on Agilex5 fpga device

Hi Team, 

 

              We recently purchased license for the ARM DS5 IDE from Altera with License file contains note as NOTICE="For use with Intel or Altera devices only". I am using Arm Development studio IDE with version 2025.1-1. ALtera Agilex 5 FPGA device configured with custom soft macro based design which is only having ARM Cortex M55 processor cores with coresight debug IP . My question is whether ARM DS IDE will detect, access and debug the Cortex M55 cores which is in the fpga through the JTAG USB Blaster ?  

Please provide the detailed explanation

 

Regards

Suresh

    For debugging the Agilex5 FPGA Devices, you could use the Ashling IDE which is Free to download.
