ENABLE_TEST_CTRL Instruction

The ENABLE_TEST_CTRL instruction selects a 3-bit shift register (TEST_CTRL) for connection as a

shift path between the TDI and TDO pin. When the user transitions the TAP controller to the UPDATE_DR

state, the register transfers its value to a parallel hold register. It allows the control chip to test functions

independent of the JTAG TAP controller state.

23.4.3.5

HIGHZ Instruction

The HIGHZ instruction eliminates the need to backdrive the output pins during circuit-board testing.

HIGHZ turns off all output drivers, including the 2-state drivers, and selects the bypass register. HIGHZ

also asserts internal reset for the MCU system logic to force a predictable internal state.

23.4.3.6

CLAMP Instruction

The CLAMP instruction selects the bypass register and asserts internal reset while simultaneously forcing

all output pins and bidirectional pins configured as outputs to the fixed values that are preloaded and held

in the boundary scan update register. CLAMP enhances test efficiency by reducing the overall shift path

to a single bit (the bypass register) while conducting an EXTEST type of instruction through the boundary

scan register.

23.4.3.7

BYPASS Instruction

The BYPASS instruction selects the bypass register, creating a single-bit shift register path from the TDI

pin to the TDO pin. BYPASS enhances test efficiency by reducing the overall shift path when a device

other than the ColdFire processor is the device under test on a board design with multiple chips on the

overall boundary scan chain. The shift register LSB is forced to logic 0 on the rising edge of TCK after

entry into the capture-DR state. Therefore, the first bit shifted out after selecting the bypass register is

always logic 0. This differentiates parts that support an IDCODE register from parts that support only the

bypass register.

23.5.1

Restrictions

The test logic is a static logic design, and TCK can be stopped in either a high or low state without loss of

data. However, the system clock is not synchronized to TCK internally. Any mixed operation using both

the test logic and the system functional logic requires external synchronization.
Using the EXTEST instruction requires a circuit-board test environment that avoids device-destructive

configurations in which MCU output drivers are enabled into actively driven networks.

23.5.2

Nonscan Chain Operation

Keeping the TAP controller in the test-logic-reset state ensures that the scan chain test logic is transparent

to the system logic. It is recommended that TMS, TDI, TCK, and TRST be pulled up. TRST could be

connected to ground. However, since there is a pull-up on TRST, some amount of current results. The

internal power-on reset input initializes the TAP controller to the test-logic-reset state on power-up without

asserting TRST.
