There is connection between TPS IC/pin-6 (NRES) and uC/Pin-31 (nPORRST) with pull-up. We face one issue regarding programing of uC using JTAG.
- First, we can able to program the uC (Unloaded, fresh uC), which enable the external watch dog (TPS IC – U1).
- In next time, if we try to program the uC, the JTAG not able to access uC.
-
- Reason: 'NRES' is on LOW, which reset the uC (as it is connected to 'nPORRST').
- Root cause suspected: When JTAG is trying to access uC, it will reset the uC and hence, uC will not able to serve the Watch dog to TPC IC. So, the TPS IC enable 'NRES' is to LOW state.
My query:
Kindly confirm whether there is any option to disable the Watchdog through JTAG using ICE debugger. We wanted to disable the Watchdog during programming through JTAG and watchdog will be active during normal operation. Or is there any other solution typically followed for this scenario?
