== General ==
=== JTAG ===
JTAG basics can be found all over the internet. This section should go into
some more details about working with JTAG. What hardwarde do you need, what is
the usage of JTAG, where do I get files. What file formats are available...
==== Introduction ====
JTAG (IEEE 1149.1) is a serial interface for testing devices with
integrated circuits. The problem that the JTAG interface was designed to solve
is checking if connections between ICs are OK. Therefore you can set and check
in- and outputs of ICs. In order to save pins and logic a very simple serial
design was invented.
* One pin serial input
* One pin serial output
* One pin clock
* One pin control
The control pin (together with clock) allows to switch device states. A state
machine inside each chip can be controlled, e.g. to reset the device. This
control machine also allows to have two internal shift registers in each device
(although we only have on in- and one output-pin). The registers are called
instruction register (IR) and data register (DR). The current UrJTAG tool
allows you to set the IR and set and get the DR. It doesn't allow you to
directly control the statemachine (yet).
==== Interfaces ====
The simplest interface that you can build is the Xilinx parallel cable (also
called DLC5). If your device works with a 5V or 3.3V supply voltage then this
device can even be build just with passive parts. (picture missing here)
UrJTAG also supports a number of other interface adapters.
==== Additions ====
In the meantime the jtag specification was used as a basis for programming
flash files and debugging processors. UrJTAG supports programming a couple of
different flash devices. It also supports programming of non-flash devices via
svf files. UrJTAG does not support debugging yet. Other open source solutions
such as OpenOCD allow you to debug ARM processors with gdb.
==== BSDL and UrJTAG data files ====
The bsdl file format describes the jtag interface for one IC. It is a vhdl
syntax with the needed information (like pin-names, register lengths and
commands) that is usually done by the supplier. e.g. the Xilinx .bsd files are
all included in their free web-pack.
Urjtag uses a different file format internally. So in order to add a new device
to UrJTAG you need to convert those files and produce a directory structure.
Currently there are at least three tools available to do that. Please ask on
the mailing list in case of problems with that. Please also send proven working
files back to this project.
==== SVF files ====
The svf file format contains a number of high level commands to drive the jtag
bus. For example you can shift the IR or DR and even check for the results.
The Xilinxs impact tool allows you to write this file to program devices.
//------------------------------------------------------------------------
=== UrJTAG ===
==== Introduction ====
UrJTAG Tools is a software package which enables working with JTAG-aware (IEEE
1149.1) hardware devices (parts) and boards through JTAG adapter.
This package has open and modular architecture with ability to write
miscellaneous extensions (like board testers, flash memory programmers, and so
on).
JTAG Tools package is free software, covered by the GNU General Public License,
and you are welcome to change it and/or distribute copies of it under certain
conditions. There is absolutely no warranty for JTAG Tools. Please read
COPYING file for more info.
WARNING: This software may damage your hardware!
Feedback and contributions are welcome.
==== UrJTAG Website ====
The most current version of this documentation and UrJTAG sourcecode
is always available from the project page at Sourceforge,
http://urjtag.sourceforge.net
==== The name "UrJTAG" ====
I (Kolja) favour short names, so I thought about adding only a few
letters to "JTAG". The prefix "Ur" in German means "ancestral", an "Ur-Vater"
is a forefather. UrJTAG shall become the forefather, the basis for many other
JTAG tools.
==== Authors, contributors, ... thanks ====
A list of contributors is maintained in the file THANKS in the source
distribution.
==== UrJTAG and openwince JTAG Tools ====
The JTAG Tools originally were developed by Marcel Telka as part of
the openwince project. Still a large portion of the source code is his work.
However, the last release of the JTAG tools was version 0.5.1 in 2003. After a
few years the development completely stalled. Every few months or so on the
project's mailing list someone asked about continuing, but a critical mass
wasn't reached before late 2007. A fork of the JTAG tools was created under the
wings of the UrJTAG project at Sourceforge.
//------------------------------------------------------------------------
=== System requirements ===
//Copied from original README
==== Supported host operating systems ====
JTAG Tools should run on all Unix like operating systems including MS Windows
with Cygwin installed.

//------------------------------------------------------------------------
=== Installation ===
==== Required software for compiling UrJTAG ====
To run autogen.sh, you need autoconf and automake, bison, and a recent flex.
Flex 2.5.4a as it comes with Cygwin will work but some parts of UrJTAG (namely
the SVF player) become more verbose if Flex 2.5.31 or newer is used.
Furthermore, libtool should be available, and "devel" versions of the following
packages:
* gettext
* readline
If you plan to use any USB adapter with Linux, libusb-dev and probably
libftdi-dev are a good choice (that are Debian package names; other
distributions certainly have similar packages). On Windows, the FTDI
FTD2XX library should work:
* http://libusb.sourceforge.net (libusb)
* http://libusb-win32.sourceforge.net (libusb for Windows)
* http://www.intra2net.com/de/produkte/opensource/ftdi/ (libftdi)
* http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX.htm (FTDI FTD2XX library)
==== Installing from source tar.gz ====
The installation follows the standard configure, make, make install scheme:
tar xzvf urjtag.tar.gz
cd ../jtag
./configure
make
make install
==== Installing from Suvbersion repository ====
If you want to try the very newest version of UrJTAG...
svn co http://urjtag.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/urjtag/trunk urjtag
cd urjtag/jtag ./autogen.sh
# ./configure is run by autogen.sh
make
make install
//=========================================================================
== Usage ==
=== Quick start ===
//Contributed by Ralf Engels
==== Run the software ====
Connect your JTAG adapter between your PC and target device and turn
on your device.
To run JTAG Tools type "jtag" and press Enter. jtag should start and
display some initial informations. Output should end with line like this:
This is "jtag command prompt". Type "help" and press Enter for initial help
about available commands. To exit JTAG Tools type "quit" and press Enter.
==== Configure the cable ====
Type "help cable" for list of supported JTAG cables.
Type "cable" command with arguments. Example:
jtag> cable EA253 parallel 0x378
Initializing ETC EA253 JTAG Cable on parallel port at 0x378
==== Detect parts on the JTAG chain ====
Type "detect" at the jtag command prompt:
jtag> detect
Your output should look like this:
IR length: 5
Chain length: 1
Device Id: 01011001001001100100000000010011
Manufacturer: Intel
Part: PXA250
Stepping: C0
Filename: /usr/local/share/jtag/intel/pxa250/pxa250c0
If you get empty output or an error message your JTAG adapter is not connected
properly, or your target board doesn't work, or it is turned off.
The "detect" command is required before all other commands.
==== Print current JTAG chain status ====
jtag> print chain
No. Manufacturer Part Stepping Instruction Register
---------------------------------------------------------
0 Intel PXA250 C0 BYPASS BR
==== Sample device pin status ====
jtag> instruction SAMPLE/PRELOAD
jtag> shift ir
jtag> shift dr
jtag> dr
1000110010000010000110010111111111111111111001101110...
jtag> print chain
No. Manufacturer Part Stepping Instruction Register
------------------------------------------------------------
0 Intel PXA250 C0 SAMPLE/PRELOAD BSR
jtag> get signal BOOT_SEL[0]
BOOT_SEL[0] = 0
jtag>
Note: BSR is "Boundary Scan Register"
==== Burn flash connected to the part ====
jtag> flashmem 0 brux.b
0x00000000
Note: Supported configuration is 2 x 16 bit only
BOOT_SEL: Asynchronous 32-bit ROM

=== JTAG commands ===
==== Overview ====
Following is a list of commands currently supported by jtag and some
example usage.
*bit*:: define new BSR bit
*bus*:: change active bus
*cable*:: select JTAG cable
*detect*:: detect parts on the JTAG chain
*detectflash*:: detect parameters of flash chips attached to a part
*discovery*:: discovery of unknown parts in the JTAG chain
*dr*:: display active data register for a part
*endian*:: set/print endianess
*eraseflash*:: erase flash memory by number of blocks
*flashmem*:: burn flash memory with data from a file
*frequency*:: setup JTAG frequency
*get*:: get external signal value
*help*:: display this help
*include*:: include command sequence from external repository
*initbus*:: initialize bus driver for active part
*instruction*:: change active instruction for a part or declare new instruction
*part*:: change active part for current JTAG chain
*peek*:: read a single word
*poke*:: write a single word
*print*:: display JTAG chain list/status
*quit*:: exit and terminate this session
*readmem*:: read content of the memory and write it to file
*register*:: define new data register for a part
*script*:: run command sequence from external file
*set*:: set external signal value
*setdevice*::: force device detection
*shift*:: shift data/instruction registers through JTAG chain
*signal*:: define new signal for a part
*svf*:: execute svf commands from file
==== Basic commands ====
===== quit =====
This command closes the jtag console.
===== help =====
Without additional parameter it gives an overview of the available commands.
With a parameter you can get more information about any of the commands.
Example:
jtag> help cable
==== Part definition commands ====
The following commands are also used in the data files to define a device (IC)
on the jtag bus. It is not recommended to use these commands in an interactive
session. Instead you should produce a device definition file out of a .bsd file
using one of the supplied tools.
* bit
* register
* signal
==== Flash commands ====
These commands can be used if the device supports flashing.
* detectflash
* flashmem
* eraseflash
==== Chain management ====
===== cable =====
Sets and initialized the cable driver. This is usually the first
command that you are executing in a session. Example:
jtag> cable EA253 parallel 0x378
Initializing ETC EA253 JTAG Cable on parallel port at 0x378
For a parallel cable using the ppdev driver you would use this:
jtag> cable DLC5 ppdev /dev/parport0
If you get an error, it may be that the parallel port kernel driver
was compiled as a module in your Linux kernel and wasn't loaded automatically.
Then you should try to load the ppdev driver manually (with root rights outside
the jtag shell):
modprobe ppdev
modprobe parport
modprobe parport_pc
===== detect =====
Detects devices on the bus. Example:
jtag> detect
IR length: 5
Chain length: 1
Device Id: 01011001001001100100000000010011
Manufacturer: Intel
Part: PXA250
Stepping: C0
Filename: /usr/local/share/jtag/intel/pxa250/pxa250c0
===== setdevice =====
//From README_21065L
This command is currently only there to support the SHARC 21065L processor,
which has no IDCODE.
In jtag prompt type command "setdevice sharc21065L", now the mode changes to
SHARC 21065L specific. Note that this mode works only with SHARC 21065L
processor. If you want to try another device, please restart the JTAG tool.
jtag> setdevice sharc21065L
Device is set to SHARC 21065L

==== Data file format ====
//By Marcel Telka
JTAG declarations files are located in directory <filename>data</filename>. The
files contains common part specific JTAG information in parseable form, e.g.
list of the JTAG commands, boundary scan register, list of JTAG registers, etc.
Syntax of the JTAG declaration file is defined in the following subsections.
===== General rules =====
<para>
JTAG declaration file is text file which consists of lines. Empty lines are
ignored. Text after first <constant>#</constant> on the line to the end of line
is ignored. This is useful for comments. All other lines are significant.
Each significant line consists of tokens separated by whitespace. Whitespace
could be spaces and/or tabs.
===== Signal Definition =====
Signal definition line consists of word <constant>signal</constant> followed by
whitespace and signal name (without spaces in the name). Rest of the line
should contain whitespace separated list of pins of the part. This list is
currently not used for any purpose in JTAG Tools. It is intended for future
use.

== F.A.Q. ==
Q. When I type "cable parallel 0x378 DLC5" on Windows XP I get "Error: Cable initialization failed!". Where is the problem?::
A. Please install ioperm.sys driver using `ioperm -i` command.
Q. When running autogen.sh, I get "Can't exec "autopoint": No such file or directory"::
A. You need the headers for gettext (e.g. Debian package "gettext-devel").
Q. During compilation, I get "svf_bison.y: No such file or directory"::
A. You need "bison".
Q. During compilation, I get "flex: can't open ... src/svf/svf_flex.l"::
A. You need "flex"
Q. During compilation, I get "src/svf/svf_flex.l", line 27: unrecognized %option: bison-locations"::
A. You need a newer version of flex. It should be 2.5.31 or newer;
Unfortunately, Cygwin comes with only 2.5.4a. You may try to compile and
install a newer version of flex from source to solve this.
