JTAG PULL UP/DOWN RESISITER - JTAG PULL UP/DOWN RESISITER Hi, I am writing to ask a question about the pull-up and pull-down resistors used in JTAG signals. If an FPGA has internal pull-up resistors, do I need to add these resistors? If I do need to add these resistors, do they need to be placed close to the programming port, or is there no such requirement? I would appreciate any information you can provide on this topic. Thank you for your time and consideration. ✖ ✖ ✖ Replies: Re: JTAG PULL UP/DOWN RESISITER We do not receive any response from you to the previous answer that I have provided.

The position of the resistor in your design should be fine. Regards, Aiman Replies: Re: JTAG PULL UP/DOWN RESISITER Regarding resistors, I doubt there's a strict close to FPGA requirement because resistance is large multiple of trace impedance. Position of capacitors is more critical, a few centimeters don't matter though. Replies: Re: JTAG PULL UP/DOWN RESISITER Thank you for your reply. Since my PCB is very small, only 36mmX36mm, there are some difficulties in placing the components. If the distance is as shown in the figure, will there be a problem? Or is there a maximum allowable length? 482mil (12mm) Replies: Re: JTAG PULL UP/DOWN RESISITER Hi, It is recommended to follow the setup in the userguide. For the resistor, it should be put close to FPGA. Regards, Aiman
