JTAG Boundary Scan
Introduction
The JTAG Boundary Scan interface provides a way to test the interconnections between integrated
circuit pins after they have been assembled onto a circuit board.
There are two pin types present in the PES12N3: AC-coupled and DC-coupled (also called AC and DC
pins). The Boundary Scan interface in the PES12N3 is both IEEE 1149.1 and 1149.6 compliant to allow
simultaneous testing of both AC and DC pins. The DC pins are those “normal” pins that do not require AC-
coupling and are tested in the PES12N3 using the IEEE 1149.1 standard.
The presence of AC-coupling capacitors on some of the PES12N3 pins prevents DC values from being
driven between a driver and receiver. An AC Boundary Scan methodology, as described in IEEE 1149.6, is
available to provide a time-varying signal to pass through the AC-coupling when in AC test mode.
Test Access Point
The system logic utilizes a 16-state, six-bit TAP controller, a four-bit instruction register, and five dedi-
cated pins to perform a variety of functions. The primary use of the JTAG TAP Controller state machine is to
allow the five external JTAG control pins to control and access the PES12N3's many external signal pins.
The JTAG TAP Controller can also be used for identifying the device part number. The JTAG logic of the
PES12N3 is depicted in Figure 11.1.

Refer to the IEEE 1149.1 and 1149.6 documents for a complete operational description of the Boundary
Scan and TAP controller.
Signal Definitions
JTAG operations such as reset, state-transition control, and clock sampling are handled through the
signals listed in Table 11.1. A functional overview of the TAP Controller and Boundary Scan registers is
provided in the sections following the table.
