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 PES34H16: AC-coupled and DC-coupled (also called AC and DC
pins). The Boundary Scan interface in the PES34H16 is IEEE 1149.1 compliant to allow testing of the DC
pins. The DC pins are those “normal” pins that do not require AC-coupling.
The presence of AC-coupling capacitors on some of the PES34H16 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; however,
IEEE 1149.6 is not supported in the PES34H16.
Test Access Point
The system logic utilizes a 16-state, TAP controller, a six-bit instruction register, and five dedicated 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 PES34H16's many external signal pins. The JTAG
TAP Controller can also be used for identifying the device part number. The JTAG logic of the PES34H16 is
depicted in Figure 10.1.

Refer to the IEEE 1149.1 document for an 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 10.1. A functional overview of the TAP Controller and Boundary Scan registers is
