V3 MINIE not working with U575 custom board

[WellLeithed]

I have a 14-pin connector and a 6-pin fall back connector. I can connect the 6-pin SWD via st-link V2 on a nucleo board but I cannot connect with a V3 MINIE on the 14-pin. Any ideas? I followed the schematic for a 14-pin connector I found on a NUCLEO board, which had a 100 ohm resistor on GND detect. I have bypassed it but the result is still the same. Apart from that and the TX/RX, the wires are the same for the 6-pin connector that works?

Here's my output:

CDLiveWatchSetup

Info : The selected transport took over low-level target control. The results might differ compared to plain JTAG/SWD

Can STM32CubeProgrammer connect?

If not, probably a wiring mismatch or bad connection somewhere.

It detects voltage, so that part is good.

[WellLeithed]

It can't, although I connected my MINIE V3 to a nucleo board so that's not the problem.

 

I followed this schematic (https://www.st.com/resource/en/schematic_pack/mb1549-u575ziq-c03_schematic.pdf) but the 100 nF capacitor on NRST doesn't seem to go to zero when I connect the debugger. It gets to about 1.8V. One thing I didn't do is add the ESD protection.

When the board is connected to the MINIE V3, how is it powered? The programmer does not provide power.

Please show the schematics.

What about the other combinations ?

	14-pin	6-pin
st-link V2	?	OK
V3 MINIE	fail	?

 

PS:

Can the V3 MINNIE connect to anything else?

[WellLeithed]

I copied the nucleo schematic I linked earlier.
As I mentioned the MINIE is fine as I connected to nucleo board and visualised it on CubeProgrammer. 
I cannot complete the table as I'm unable to connect the parts in the manners suggested.

[WellLeithed]

And here's the 6-pin connector.

Schematic is okay. Maybe the footprint on the connector is wrong, or it's installed in reverse.

[Andrew Neil]

Or an error in the wiring between the ST-Link and the connector ...

I've just noticed that the footprint of the connector has pins 5 and 6 mixed up. Anyone have any ideas for removing the trace connecting pins 6 and 7 under the 14-pin connector (hahaha!)? Thank God for the 6-pin fallback the board has. And thank you for your willingness to help.

Use an adaptor cable / interposer to correct it.
