Problem Title:
JTAG - Mandatory instructions defined by IEEE standard 1149.1
Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard
General Description:
What are the mandatory Boundary Scan instructions defined by the
IEEE 1149.1 standard?
Solution 1:
The only JTAG instructions which are defined and required
by the IEEE 1149.1 standard are BYPASS, EXTEST and
SAMPLE/PRELOAD.
BYPASS is defined as all bits in the IR as all ones.
EXTEST is defined as all bits in the IR as all zeros.
The standard has not designated a mandatory bit pattern for the
SAMPLE/PRELOAD instruction . This is controlled by the IC
manufacturer.
All other JTAG instructions are defined by the IC manufacturer and
can be found in the BSDL file or in the data sheets
