10 Appendix A – Alternate Bypass
Methods
Sections 1.5.2 and 2.5.2 of the attached document describes the recommended bypass method for
the ITP scan chain using a four-pin header. The four-pin header is preferred due to the
characteristic it has of completely removing the TDO pin from the TDI/TDO path to the next scan
chain agent. There are other methods possible for completely bypassing populated scan chain
agents. Figure 21 describes a method of completely bypassing the last agent of a scan chain using a
three-pin header. Note that this method would require 75 Ω pull ups to VTAP on the TDO pins of
both P0 and P1. Figure 22 illustrates a method of completely bypassing two agents using a three-
pin header and a pair of two-pin headers.
