Abstract:
The present disclosure describes using the JTAG Tap's TMS and/or TCK terminals as general purpose serial Input/Output (I/O) Manchester coded communication terminals. The Tap's TMS and/or TCK terminal can be used as a serial I/O communication channel between; (1) an IC and an external controller, (2) between a first and second IC, or (3) between a first and second core circuit within an IC. The use of the TMS and/or TCK terminal as serial I/O channels, as described, does not effect the standardized operation of the JTAG Tap, since the TMS and/or TCK I/O operations occur while the Tap is placed in a non-active steady state.

Claim (Index 2):
The debug interface of an integrated circuit of  claim 1 , wherein the TMS inout pin is configured as an input pin for write data signal for debug operation when the debug interface is configured to a third mode during which the write data signal is input to the debug interface serially from the TMS inout pin.
