UART Pin Termination
UART is in idle state when both its lines are set to HIGH. To prevent the transmitter
pin from floating during reset or power up, both UART input (RXD) and output (TXD)
pins could be terminated by connecting them to VCC through pull-up, for example,
10 kΩ resistors.

JTAG Pin Termination
The specification of IEEE 1149.1 standard requires all JTAG pins to be connected to
their internal termination. Therefore, there is no need to terminate unused JTAG
pins. For extra safety, however, the JTAG pins could be terminated externally.
illustrates termination of the JTAG_TCK pin (ball G2), which is connected
to VSS through a 10 kΩ pull-down resistor. The JTAG TMS, TRST_B and TDI pins
