SLVSDD4C September 2016 – March 2020 UCD90160A
PRODUCTION DATA.
The JTAG port can be used for production programming. Four of the six JTAG pins can also be used as GPIOs during normal operation. See the Pin Functions table at the beginning of the document and Table 4 for a list of the JTAG signals and which can be used as GPIOs. The JTAG port is compatible with the IEEE Standard 1149.1-1990, IEEE Standard Test-Access Port and Boundary Scan Architecture specification. Boundary scan is not supported on this device.
The JTAG interface can provide an alternate interface for programming the device. It is disabled by default in order to enable the GPIO pins with which it is multiplexed. There are two conditions under which the JTAG interface is enabled:
The Fusion Digital Power Designer software can create SVF files (See Device Configuration and Programming section) based on a given data flash configuration which can be used to program the desired configuration by JTAG. For Boundary Scan Description Language (BSDL) file that supports the UCD90160A, see the product folder in www.ti.com.
There are many JTAG programmers in the market and they all do not function the same. When using JTAG to configure the device, confirm that the availability of JTAG tools before committing to a programming solution.
