@muted dragon Being completely un-knowledgeable on J-link/etc, can the BlackMagic be used for burning bootloaders onto raw chips, or is that something it's not intended for?

muted dragon

all black magic probes are flashed including the bootloder with black magic probes. We also debug our own code with a black magic probe. So inception galore! ๐Ÿ˜„

Oh, I meant using it to program custom SAMD21 boards and the like

The Microbit model could be huge with schools.

So if the chip is supported that you have the answer is yes, you can flash it with the bmp fully, no special bootloaders needed.

@muted mesa It wasn't the jack that I had trouble with. It was the plug. The center contact does not have a loop that you can put a wire through. It's just a little metal post. The two "R" and the sleeve has good connections but the tip doesn't.
