38.4.1
SWJ debug port pins
Five pins are used as outputs from the STM32F4xx for the SWJ-DP as
alternate functions
of
general-purpose I/Os. These pins are available on all packages.
38.4.2
Flexible SWJ-DP pin assignment
After RESET (SYSRESETn or PORESETn), all five pins used for the SWJ-DP are assigned
as dedicated pins immediately usable by the debugger host (note that the trace outputs are
not assigned except if explicitly programmed by the debugger host).
However, the STM32F4xx MCUs offers the possibility of disabling some or all of the SWJ-
DP ports and so, of releasing the associated pins for general-purpose IO (GPIO) usage. For
more details on how to disable SWJ-DP port pins, please refer to
.
Note:
When the APB bridge write buffer is full, it takes one extra APB cycle when writing the
GPIO_AFR register. This is because the deactivation of the JTAGSW pins is done in two
cycles to guarantee a clean level on the nTRST and TCK input signals of the core.
•
Cycle 1: the JTAGSW input signals to the core are tied to 1 or 0 (to 1 for nTRST, TDI
and TMS, to 0 for TCK)
•
Cycle 2: the GPIO controller takes the control signals of the SWJTAG IO pins (like
controls of direction, pull-up/down, Schmitt trigger activation, etc.).
