Nexus Port Controller (NPC)
asynchronously holding all other Nexus modules in reset as well. This prevents Nexus read/write to
memory mapped resources and the transmission of Nexus trace messages.
34.2.3.6 Nexus Double Data Rate Mode
Nexus double data rate (DDR) mode is enabled by asserting the DDR_EN bit in the PCR. In double data
rate mode, message data is updated as follows, effectively doubling message throughput:
• For cut1: On each edge (both rising and falling) of MCKO
• For cut2/3: Between the edges (both rising and falling) of MCKO
34.3 External signal description
34.3.1 Overview
The NPC pin interface provides for the transmission of messages from Nexus blocks to the external
development tools and for access to Nexus client registers. The NPC pin definition is outlined in
Table 34-2.

NOTES:
1 The pull is not implemented in this block. Pullup/pulldown devices are implemented in the pads.
2 Following a power-on reset, MDO[0] remains asserted until power-on reset is exited and the system clock
achieves lock.
3 TCK frequency must be lower than system clock frequency during low power and normal operation modes for
communication
4 TDO output buffer enable is negated when the NPC is not in the Shift-IR or Shift-DR states. A weak pull may
be implemented on TDO at the SoC level.
34.3.2 Detailed signal descriptions
This section describes each of the signals listed in Table 34-2 in more detail. The JTAG test clock (TCK)
input from the pin is not a direct input to the NPC. The NPC requires two separate input clocks for TCK
clocked logic, one for posedge (rising edge TCK) logic and one for negedge (falling edge TCK) logic. Both
clocks are derived from the pin TCK, and generated external to the NPC.
