I/O diagrams for DSTREAM-PT signals
The following diagrams and descriptions illustrate a simplified view of how each signal type is
connected within the debug unit.
Note
All comparator inputs have an indeterminate band of 100mV above, and below,
VTREF
/2. Signals that
are output from the target system, when passing through this voltage region, must be monotonic.
Input/Output signals
Standard input/output signals (
TDI
,
TMS
,
TDO
,
RTCK
,
SWDIO
,
DBGRQ
,
DBGACK
) use
LVCMOS
output buffers and comparator inputs with a series 33Ω resistor.

TCK signal
The
TCK
output signal is similar to a standard output signal, but also has a switchable capacitor, forming
a T-filter, which can reduce the
TCK
slew-rate.
Enabling this filter is not currently supported in Arm Development Studio.

Reset signals
The reset signals (
nSRST
and
nTRST
) are similar to the standard input/output signals. However, they
have an extra LVCMOS driver, which is connected using a 4K7 resistor, that provides the weak pull-up
and pull-down functionality.
