10 JTAG BST Overview

10 devices support the IEEE Std.1149.1 (JTAG) boundary-scan testing
(BST).
When you perform BST, you can test pin connections without using physical test
probes and capture functional data during normal operation. The boundary-scan cells
(BSCs) in a device can force signals onto pins, or capture data from pins or core logic
signals. Forced test data is serially shifted in from the TDI pin to the BSCs. Captured
data is serially shifted out to the TDO pin for external comparison with expected
results.
Note: You can perform BST on Intel MAX 10 devices before, after, and during configuration.
