2.5 JTAG
The TMS, TDO, TDI and TCK pins are used for testing and debugging according to the Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) standard. It is recommended to keep the trace length between the JTAG connector and the JTAG pins on the device as short as possible. If the JTAG connector is expected to experience an ESD event, a series resistor is recommended, with the value in the range of a few tens of Ωs, not to exceed 100 Ωs with protection using Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS), at the user’s discretion. Refer to the Schematic Checklist chapter.
