3.6 JTAG and Security

On F2xx devices, the JTAG port is secured by blowing a physical fuse on one of the JTAG lines by subjecting it to a high voltage through a special procedure. This action is irreversible, and further access to the device is only possible through the BSL.

On the FR4xx devices, there is no physical fuse. The JTAG/SBW is locked by programming a specific signature into the device's FRAM memory at JTAG/SBW signature address of FF80h to FF83h.

When JTAG/SBW is locked by programming the JTAG/SBW signature, access to the device is only possible through the BSL (using the BSL password). However, when the BSL is not disabled and the BSL password is supplied, it is possible to clear the JTAG/SBW signature and make JTAG communication available again. Hence, on the FR4xx devices, locking the JTAG/SBW is reversible if the BSL password is known and BSL is not disabled.

Table 3-2 describes the FR4xx device password, BSL signature, and JTAG/SBW signature.
