Abstract
One aspect provides an FPGA chip mounted on a printed circuit board (PCB). The FPGA chip can include a joint test action group (JTAG) interface comprising a number of input/output pins and an enablement pin, and a control logic block coupled to the enablement pin of the JTAG interface. The control logic block can receive a control signal from an off-chip control unit and control a logical value of the enablement pin based on the received control signal, thereby facilitating the off-chip control unit to lock or unlock the JTAG interface. The FPGA chip can further include a detection logic block to detect an unauthorized access to the FPGA chip. An input to the detection logic is coupled to the enablement pin, and a conductive trace coupling the input of the detection logic block and the enablement pin is situated on an inner layer of the PCB.
