    Hi,


    1) This version of CPLD my VCCINT is supplied by 1.8V and VCCIO (Bank 1

    and 2) with 3.3V. The pin 4 on the JTAG connector, should be attached to

    the 1.8V or 3.3V?

    The pin 4 should be attach to 3.3V as the input and output buffer is provided by VCCIO pin.


    2) Some datasheets say that the TMS should have a 10k pull-up resistor

    and TCK should have a pull-down resistor of 10k and some 1k. Which one

    is correct for TCK, 10k or 1k?

    It should be 10K pull-up on TMS and 1K pull-down for TCK. Please refer to https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/hb/max2/max2_mii51013.pdf - Figure 11–1
