Abstract
A system includes a test access port (TAP) configured to provide internal joint test action group (IJTAG) access to one or more test data registry (TDR). The system further includes a plurality of hierarchical electronic components, wherein each hierarchical electronic component includes a de-asserted segment inserted bit (D-SIB) register, an asserted segment inserted bit (A-SIB) register, and a TDR associated with the D-SIB register. Each D-SIB register is configured to prevent access to its associated TDR when a reset signal is asserted and each A-SIB register is configured to provide access to its subsequent A-SIB register or D-SIB register coupled thereto when the reset signal is asserted.
