1. Thanks for notice. It is now uploaded.

2. No idea. Some bit file was provided by Cologne community if I remember correct. The software usage is detailed here: https://github.com/OLIMEX/GateMateA1-EVB/blob/main/SOFTWARE/ug1002-toolchain-install-latest.pdf

3. Yes, we published the uf2 file that we ship the boards with, here: https://github.com/OLIMEX/GateMateA1-EVB/tree/main/SOFTWARE/dirtyJtag

I believe we took it from here: https://github.com/colognechip/gatemate_ila/tree/main/Olimex_DirtyJTAG_firmware

It is popular board, you can find a lot of projects online, like check this one:

Hi,
QuoteNo idea. Some bit file was provided by Cologne community if I remember correct. The software usage is detailed here: https://github.com/OLIMEX/GateMateA1-EVB/blob/main/SOFTWARE/ug1002-toolchain-install-latest.pdf

I found this: https://youtu.be/lMUQplZXPoM?si=BMzlcv0eBE_oDg0y
Where they referred to the 'blink' example.
It is present in the toolchain, but it needs to be edited to change the pin definition, which is set to CCGM1A1-E1 by default.
I searched on GitHub and found a couple of repositories that contain the blink example with the pin definition for Olimex:

I hope this helps others.
