Description
DBGROMADDR[39:12]
Input
Debug ROM base address.
Specifies bits[39:12] of the ROM table physical address.
If the address cannot be determined, tie this signal LOW.
This pin is sampled only during reset of the processor.
DBGROMADDRV
Input
Debug ROM base address valid.
If the debug ROM address cannot be determined, tie this signal LOW.
This pin is sampled only during reset of the processor.
DBGACK[CN:0]
Output
Debug acknowledge:
0
External debug request not acknowledged.
1
External debug request acknowledged.
nCOMMIRQ[CN:0]
Output
Communications channel receive or transmit interrupt request
0
Request interrupt.
1
No interrupt request.
COMMRX[CN:0]
Output
Communications channel receive. Receive portion of Data Transfer Register full flag:
0
Empty.
1
Full.
COMMTX[CN:0]
Output
Communication transmit channel. Transmit portion of Data Transfer Register empty
flag:
0
Full.
1
Empty.
EDBGRQ[CN:0]
Input
External debug request:
0
No external debug request.
1
External debug request.
The processor treats the
EDBGRQ
input as level-sensitive. The
EDBGRQ
input must
be asserted until the processor asserts
DBGACK.
DBGEN[CN:0]
Input
Invasive debug enable:
0
Not enabled.
1
Enabled.
NIDEN[CN:0]
Input
Non-invasive debug enable:
0
Not enabled.
1
Enabled.
SPIDEN[CN:0]
Input
Secure privileged invasive debug enable:
0
Not enabled.
1
Enabled.
SPNIDEN[CN:0]
Input
Secure privileged non-invasive debug enable:
0
Not enabled.
1
Enabled.
DBGRSTREQ[CN:0]
Output
Warm reset request.
DBGNOPWRDWN[CN:0]
Output
No powerdown request:
0
On a powerdown request, the SoC power controller powers down the
processor.
1
On a powerdown request, the SoC power controller does not power
down the processor.
