33.4.3 Internal pull-up and pull-down on JTAG pins
It is necessary to ensure that the JTAG input pins are not floating since they are directly
connected to flip-flops to control the debug mode features. Special care must be taken with
the SWCLK/TCK pin which is directly connected to the clock of some of these flip-flops.
To avoid any uncontrolled IO levels, the device embeds internal pull-ups and pull-downs on
the JTAG input pins:
• NJTRST: Internal pull-up
• JTDI: Internal pull-up
• JTMS/SWDIO: Internal pull-up
• TCK/SWCLK: Internal pull-down
Once a JTAG IO is released by the user software, the GPIO controller takes control again.
The reset states of the GPIO control registers put the I/Os in the equivalent state:
• NJTRST: AF input pull-up
• JTDI: AF input pull-up
• JTMS/SWDIO: AF input pull-up
• JTCK/SWCLK: AF input pull-down
• JTDO: AF output floating
The software can then use these I/Os as standard GPIOs.
Note: The JTAG IEEE standard recommends to add pull-ups on TDI, TMS and nTRST but there is
no special recommendation for TCK. However, for JTCK, the device needs an integrated
pull-down.
Having embedded pull-ups and pull-downs removes the need to add external resistors.
33.4.4 Using serial wire and releasing the unused debug pins as GPIOs
To use the serial wire DP to release some GPIOs, the user software must change the GPIO
(PA15, PB3 and PB4) configuration mode in the GPIO_MODER register. This releases
PA15, PB3 and PB4 which now become available as GPIOs.
When debugging, the host performs the following actions:
• Under system reset, all SWJ pins are assigned (JTAG-DP + SW-DP).
• Under system reset, the debugger host sends the JTAG sequence to switch from the
JTAG-DP to the SW-DP.
• Still under system reset, the debugger sets a breakpoint on vector reset.
• The system reset is released and the Core halts.
• All the debug communications from this point are done using the SW-DP. The other
JTAG pins can then be reassigned as GPIOs by the user software.
Note: For user software designs, note that:
To release the debug pins, remember that they will be first configured either in input-pull-up
(nTRST, TMS, TDI) or pull-down (TCK) or output tristate (TDO) for a certain duration after
reset until the instant when the user software releases the pins.
When debug pins (JTAG or SW or TRACE) are mapped, changing the corresponding IO pin
configuration in the IOPORT controller has no effect.
