14.3 aWire port interface
aWire is a single-wire debug solution that offers memory access, programming
capabilities, and On-Chip Debug access. aWire can also be used as a UART when it
is not used for debugging.
A full-duplex mode can be used to increase speed, in which case data is transmitted
on a second pin, DATAOUT.
aWire uses the RESET_N pin for data in/data out. When using aWire, the board reset
circuitry must be disconnected. Refer to Figure 14-3 which demonstrates the use of
RESET_N for half-duplex mode, and Figure 14-4, where DATAOUT is added for full-
duplex communication.
