Connection Recommendations

Power and ground connections must be made to all 80960Jx power and ground pins. On the circuit board,

liberal decoupling capacitance near the 80960Jx, since the processor can cause transient power surges.
Pay special attention to the Test Reset (TRST) pin. It is essential that the JTAG Boundary Scan Test Access
Port (TAP) controller initializes to a known state whether it will be used or not. If the JTAG Boundary Scan
function will be used, connect a pulldown resistor between the TRST pin and V

Do not connect the TDI, TDO, and TCK pins if the TAP Controller will not be used.
VCC5 Pin Requirements (VDIFF)
In 3.3 V only systems where the 80960Jx input pins are driven from 3.3 V logic, connect the VCC5
pin directly to the 3.3 V V
In mixed voltage systems where the processor is powered by 3.3 V and interfaces with 5 V
components, VCC5 must be connected to 5 V. This allows proper 5 V tolerant buffer operation,
and prevents damage to the input pins. The voltage differential between the 80960Jx VCC5 pin and
its 3.3 V V
pin may exceed the value at which the processor is damaged. Instances when the voltage can
exceed 2.25 V is during power up or power down, where one source reaches its level faster than the
other, briefly causing an excess voltage differential. Another instance is during steady-state
operation, where the differential voltage of the regulator (provided a regulator is used) cannot be
maintained within 2.25 V. Two methods are possible to prevent this from happening:
VCC5 Current-Limiting Resistor
If the regulator cannot prevent the 2.25 V differential, the addition of the resistor is a simple and
reliable method for limiting current. The resistor can also prevent damage in the case of a power
failure, where the 5 V supply remains on and the 3.3 V supply goes to zero.
