Problem Title:
Hardwire JTAG - Does Hardwire support JTAG?


Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard

General Description:

If I convert my design to hardwire, can it still support JTAG?


Solution 1:

Hardwire will support 100% functionality of JTAG if it was properly designed into the part. The boundary scan architecture is required on every pin of the device, and does add to the gate coun t of a part. For more information, the hardwire design guide is available through your local sales representative.
