18.5 DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

This section outlines considerations for the test-logic unit.

The JTAG Test-Logic Unit must be reset upon power-up using the TRST# pin. (To do this,
invert the RESET signal and send this inverted RESET to the TRST# pin). If this is not
done, the processor may power-up with the JTAG test-logic unit in control of the device
pins, and the system does not initialize properly.

For system-level in-circuit emulation, use the HIGHZ instruction to enter ONCE mode. For
device-level in-circuit emulation, you assert the FLT# pin to enter ONCE mode. This
method can interfere with the test-logic unit’s parallel functions, although it does not affect
the shifting functions or the TDO output.
