Featuring a built-in voltage translator and dual USB interfaces for GDB and UART, it offers a compact, cost-effective solution ideal for embedded developers seeking customizable, community-driven hardware. ## Description Jeff Probe is an open source JTAG probe based entirely off the popular black magic probe. We needed a cost effective solution for in house debugging, the ability for customization, and something we can include on test fixtures. We leveraged our volume and made Jeff Probe in hopes to give back to the community and give students an opportunity to get an affordable JTAG solution. Unique feature for 2 wire serial interfaces, allows unused JTAG pins to route UART for single wire connection. Shows up as two USB interfaces, one as the GDB server, one as the UART to the slave device. Review: Nice cheaper alternative to the Black Magic Probe - A great little debug probe that is comparable to the official black magic probe with a less powerful mcu. The price reflects this, however. Of course, you could always flash the BMP firmware onto a cheap stm32 dev board, but I'd rather buy this because it comes in a very compact form factor and provides the handy UART port as well. Review: Neat little black magic probe - Well made. Great price. ## Features - Supports many targets, including Raspberry Pi Pico - Open Source and Open Hardware, Based on Black Magic Probe - Built In Voltage Translator - Raspberry Pi: RP2040 - Atmel: SAMD20, SAMD21, SAM32, SAM3X, SAM3S, SAM3U, SAM4L, SAM4S - Nordic: 51 and 52 Series. - Freescale: KL25, KL27, KL02, KE04.

The Jeff Probe runs a modified version of the black magic probe firmware, which is designed to debug/program most ARM CPUs ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice cheaper alternative to the Black Magic Probe *by B***S on July 9, 2020* A great little debug probe that is comparable to the official black magic probe with a less powerful mcu.

Great price. ### ⭐ No software support and missing documentation, better off with the real thing *by L***L on June 20, 2022* I've been doing embedded development professionally for close to two decades, and the Jeff probe looked like it might hit the spot for a very cheap SWD/JTAG adapter for embedding in automated test fixtures or giving to coworkers that don't need to program very often. The only reason I didn't get a real BlackMagic Probe was that they are out of stock everywhere (likely due to the STM32 shortage that is ongoing). There is very little documentation on what makes this hardware different from the real BMP, and it took me longer than I care to admit to realize this is running a SAMD21, not an STM32. The creator's fork of software is extremely out of date and no longer builds in a modern Linux system. Support for the Jeff Probe was never up streamed to BMP's repos, so we can't run the latest code either. I'm sure with some hacking I could port forward to the newest BMP, but this was a stab at a $15 fix, and it looks like it didn't pay off. The creator made the statement several times on their website that it runs "the exact same firmware as the BMP" which isn't really the case as a build of their `main` doesn't support the `jeff` probe target with the SAMD21. I totally get that it takes effort to support hardware after release, and that this feels more like a "put some open source hardware out there and see what happens" kind of things. That being said, in the current state, I couldn't recommend this to either a novice or expert unless the creator made efforts to update the software support or get support in mainline BMP. ## Frequently Bought Together - Jeff Probe - Open Source JTAG by Flirc - Adafruit 10-pin 2x5 Socket-Socket 1.27mm IDC (SWD) Cable - 150mm long [ADA1675] - Treedix 2pcs JTAG Breakout Board Adapter Converter SWD Breakout Jtag Debug Board with 2 Row 1.27mm Pitch 10pins Female to Female IDC Connector Flat Flexible Gray Ribbon Jumper Cable 200mm for J-Link --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/168703887-jeff-probe-open-source-jtag-by-flirc](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/168703887-jeff-probe-open-source-jtag-by-flirc) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-04-28*
