Notes to Figure 9–18:
(1) Connect the pull-up resistor to a supply that provides an acceptable input signal for all Arria II devices in the chain.
The VCCIO power supply for Arria II GX devices or the VCCPGM power supply for Arria II GZ devices must be high
enough to meet the VIH specification of the I/O on the device.
(2) To drive the JTAG pins, the microprocessor must use the same I/O standard as VCCIO for Arria II GX devices or VCCPD
for Arria II GZ devices.
(3) You must connect nCE to GND or drive it low for successful JTAG configuration.
(4) Connect the nCONFIG and MSEL pins to support a non-JTAG configuration scheme. If you use only the JTAG
configuration, connect nCONFIG to the VCCIO for Arria II GX device, VCCPGM for Arria II GZ device, and MSEL to GND.
Pull DCLK either high or low, whichever is convenient on your board. Arria II GX devices use MSEL[3..0] pins while
Arria II GZ devices use MSEL[2..0] pins.
Jam STAPL
Jam standard test and programming language (STAPL), JEDEC standard JESD-71, is a
standard file format for in-system programmability (ISP) purposes. Jam STAPL
supports programming or configuration of programmable devices and testing of
electronic systems, using the IEEE 1149.1 JTAG interface. Jam STAPL is a freely
licensed open standard.
The Jam Player provides an interface for manipulating the IEEE Std. 1149.1 JTAG TAP
state machine.
f For more information about JTAG and Jam STAPL in embedded environments, refer
to AN 425: Using Command-Line Jam STAPL Solution for Device Programming. To
