  • Page 84 Chapter 7 Notes on Target System CPU Pin Design Proposal • Connection to a point where the RESET pin of the target device cannot be driven to low level by the RESET signal of the FPL RESET Example of incorrect connection FPL RESET RESET When RESET of the FPL is driven low, the voltage level at point A does not fall.

    Jumper User reset circuit Cautions: 1. The FPL operates normally if a direct connection between PG-FPL and the device is established. No additional external components like pull up or pull down resis- tors need to be connected to the signals between PG-FPL and the device.
