Moving third tap controller from exit2-DR state to pause-DR state

A process of testing target systems connected in a star configuration, each target system having a test access port controller, comprising:

• A. moving all of the TAP controllers from a RunTest/Idle state, through a Capture-DR state and an Exit1-DR state into a Pause-DR state without traversing a Shift-DR state;
• B. selecting a first TAP controller with first encoded bits on a TDI input to each target system;
• C. moving only the first TAP controller through an Exit2-DR state, a Shift-DR state, the Exit1-DR state, and back to the Pause-DR state;
• D. de-selecting the first TAP controller and selecting a second TAP controller with second encoded bits on the TDI input to each target system;
• E. moving only the second TAP controller through an Exit2-DR state, a Shift-DR state, the Exit1-DR state, and back to the Pause-DR state;
• F. de-selecting the second TAP controller and selecting a third TAP controller with third encoded bits on the TDI input to each target system;
• G. moving only the third TAP controller through an Exit2-DR state, a Shift-DR state, the Exit1-DR state, and back to the Pause-DR state;
• and
• H. selecting all of the TAP controllers with encoded bits on the TDI input to each target system and moving all of the TAP controllers from the Pause-DR state to an Update-DR state.
