HRESETn This signal is resets the AMBA AHB components within the FPGA. It is driven active
at the same time as nRESET.
nPBFPGACONFIG This signal is generated from the FPGA RECONFIG pushbutton and causes a total
reconfiguration of the system.
nPBRESET Push-button reset signal to the FPGA. The signal is generated by pressing the reset
button.
nPBSDCRECONFIG This signal is generated from the DEV CHIP CONFIG pushbutton and causes a
reconfiguration of the ARM926EJ-S PXP Development Chip.
nPLLRESET Reset for ARM926EJ-S PXP Development Chip PLL clock circuit.
nPORESET Power-on reset to development chip, configuration flash, and expansion memory. The
CPU core, all system peripherals, and all system controller registers are reset. For
details on system registers reset at different reset levels, see Table 4-4 on page 4-18.
nPOWERFAIL This signal shuts down the onboard regulators. It is triggered by the supply voltage
falling to less than 9V. (The signal is only valid if the DC IN supply is used.)
Note
There is a nPWRFAIL signal to the interrupt controller, but this signal is not affected
by the power supply voltage. nPWRFAIL can, however, be used to test automatic
shutdown code (see Miscellaneous System Control Register, SYS_MISC on
page 4-36).
P_nRST System reset from PCI backplane.
P_nTRST JTAG TRST signal from PCI backplane.
Note
There is a separate JTAG connector and an independent scan chain on the PCI
backplane. The JTAG chain on the PB926EJ-S does not normally extend to the PCI
expansion backplane. There is a separate JTAG connector on the PCI backplane for
configuring devices on the backplane and on installed PCI cards. There are also links
that can be fitted to the PB926EJ-S that connects the two JTAG chains together, but
these links are normally only fitted for manufacturing tests.
