For device using V
CCIO
of 2.5, 3.0, and 3.3 V, refer to Figure 8–23. All I/O inputs must
maintain a maximum AC voltage of 4.1 V because JTAG pins do not have the internal
PCI clamping diodes to prevent voltage overshoot when using V
CCIO
of 2.5, 3.0, and
3.3 V. You must power up the V
CC
of the download cable with a 2.5-V supply from
V
CCA
. For device using V
CCIO
of 1.2, 1.5, and 1.8 V, refer to Figure 8–24. You can power
up the V
CC
of the download cable with the supply from V
CCIO
.

Notes to Figure 8–23:
(1) Connect these pull-up resistors to the V
CCIO
supply of the bank in which the pin resides.
(2) Connect the
nCONFIG
and
MSEL
pins to support a non-JTAG configuration scheme. If you only use JTAG
configuration, connect the
nCONFIG
pin to logic-high and the
MSEL
pins to GND. In addition, pull
DCLK
and
DATA[0]
to either high or low, whichever is convenient on your board.
(3) Pin 6 of the header is a V
IO
reference voltage for the MasterBlaster output driver. V
IO
must match the device’s V
CCA
.
For this value, refer to the MasterBlaster Serial/USB Communications Cable User Guide. When using the USB-Blaster,
ByteBlaster II, ByteBlasterMV, and EthernetBlaster cables, this pin is a no connect.
(4) The
nCE
pin must be connected to GND or driven low for successful JTAG configuration.
(5) The
nCEO
pin is left unconnected or used as a user I/O pin when it does not feed the
nCE
pin of another device.
(6) Power up the V
CC
of the EthernetBlaster, ByteBlaster II, USB-Blaster, or ByteBlasterMV cable with a 2.5-V supply from
V
CCA
. Third-party programmers must switch to 2.5 V. Pin 4 of the header is a V
CC
power supply for the MasterBlaster
cable. The MasterBlaster cable can receive power from either 5.0- or 3.3-V circuit boards, DC power supply, or 5.0 V
from the USB cable. For this value, refer to the MasterBlaster Serial/USB Communications Cable User Guide.
(7) Resistor value can vary from 1 k to 10 k..
