M1.x: BSCAN pins (TDO, TDI, TCK, TMS) are not reported for a 5200 device.
Record #4201
Product Family: Software
Product Line: FPGA Implementation
Product Part: Epic
Problem Title:
M1.x: BSCAN pins (TDO, TDI, TCK, TMS) are not reported for a 5200 device.
Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard
General Description:
With the 4k devices, TDO, TDI, TCK, TMS pins are used for
BSCAN, one would use EPIC and use editblock on the BSCAN block
and verify that these pins are being used.
However there is no block editor for a BSCAN block on a 5200 device
so there is no way to verify that all of the pins are used for BSCAN. You
can only verify that one is being used.
Solution 1:
When you load the design in EPIC you can verify that the BSCAN symbol is
being used. If it is being used and no nets are attached then at least one of
the BSCAN pins is connected.
