4.4.8. Debug JTAG/ICE
A 2×10-pin JTAG header is implemented on the SAME70-XPLD board to enable software development
and debugging of the board by using various JTAG emulators. The interface signals have a voltage level
of 3.3V.

Table 4-22 JTAG/ICE Connector J406 Signal Descriptions
Pin Signal Type Signal Description
1 VTref /
VCC_3V3
Input This is the target reference voltage. It is used to
check if the target has power, to create the logic-
level reference for the input comparators and to
control the output logic levels to the target. It is
normally fed from Vdd of the target board and must
not have a series resistor.
2 Vsupply /
VCC_3V3
Not Used This pin is not connected in J-Link. It is reserved for
compatibility with other equipment. Connect to Vdd
or leave open in target system.
3 Not used NC This pin is not used by J-Link. If the device may
also be accessed via JTAG, this pin may be
connected to nTRST, otherwise leave open.
5 Not used NC This pin is not used by J-Link. If the device may
also be accessed via JTAG, this pin may be
connected to TDI, otherwise leave open.
7 SWDIO I/O Single bi-directional data pin.
9 SWCLK Output Clock signal to target CPU. It is recommended that
this pin is pulled to a defined state of the target
board. Typically connected to TCK of target CPU.
11 Not used NC This pin is not used by J-Link. This pin is not used
by J-Link when operating in SWD mode. If the
device may also be accessed via JTAG, this pin
may be connected to RTCK, otherwise leave open.
13 SWO Output Serial Wire Output trace port. (Optional, not
required for SWD communication.)
15 RESET I/O Target CPU reset signal. Typically connected to the
RESET pin of the target CPU, which is typically
called "nRST", "nRESET" or "RESET".
17 Not used NC This pin is not connected in J-Link.
