BYPASS Instruction
The BYPASS instruction connects the associated BYPASS Data Register chain between TDI and
TDO. This instruction is used to create a minimum length serial path between the TDI and TDO ports.
The BYPASS Data Register is a single-bit shift register. This instruction improves test efficiency by
allowing components that are not needed for a specific test to be bypassed in the JTAG scan chain
by loading them with the BYPASS instruction. See “BYPASS Data Register” on page 166 for more
information.
Data Registers
The JTAG module contains six Data Registers. These serial Data Register chains include: IDCODE,
BYPASS, Boundary Scan, APACC, DPACC, and ABORT and are discussed in the following sections.
IDCODE Data Register
The format for the 32-bit IDCODE Data Register defined by the IEEE Standard 1149.1 is shown in
Figure 4-3. The standard requires that every JTAG-compliant microcontroller implement either the
IDCODE instruction or the BYPASS instruction as the default instruction. The LSB of the IDCODE
Data Register is defined to be a 1 to distinguish it from the BYPASS instruction, which has an LSB
of 0. This definition allows auto-configuration test tools to determine which instruction is the default
instruction.
The major uses of the JTAG port are for manufacturer testing of component assembly and program
development and debug. To facilitate the use of auto-configuration debug tools, the IDCODE
instruction outputs a value of 0x4BA0.0477. This value allows the debuggers to automatically
configure themselves to work correctly with the Cortex-M3 during debug.

BYPASS Data Register
The format for the 1-bit BYPASS Data Register defined by the IEEE Standard 1149.1 is shown in
Figure 4-4. The standard requires that every JTAG-compliant microcontroller implement either the
BYPASS instruction or the IDCODE instruction as the default instruction. The LSB of the BYPASS
Data Register is defined to be a 0 to distinguish it from the IDCODE instruction, which has an LSB
of 1. This definition allows auto-configuration test tools to determine which instruction is the default
instruction.

The format of the Boundary Scan Data Register is shown in Figure 4-5. Each GPIO pin, starting
with a GPIO pin next to the JTAG port pins, is included in the Boundary Scan Data Register. Each
