ks0ze Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Is there a limit on the number of devices the JTAG-SMT2 module can reliably have in the chain? Thanks, Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sLowe Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Hey Dan, It seems like the only real limiting factor is clocking signal integrity. Here is an answer from Xilinx to a similar question not using the JTAG-SMT2 module but has some good tips. They were having trouble getting consistent results with more than ten devices. The Xilinx answer goes into how they use a buffer to drive the clock nets to run 100 devices. So with some extra electronics, the JTAG chain can get pretty large! Would be interesting to try to empirically see how many devices the SMT2 could reliably drive alone. Hope this helps! Sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
