| Which pins do not have clamp diodes? 
 When clamp diodes are enabled (based on the I/O Standard), which pins do not have the clamps? Do the JTAG pins have clamp diodes?
 
 Virtex and Spartan-II
 
 On these devices, all I/O standards have an intrinsic diode between the I/O pad and ground that limits undershoot to greater than -1 V.
 The LVCMOS 2.5V, LVTTL, and PCI 5V standards are all 5V-tolerant (both inputs and outputs) and do not have a pull-up clamp enabled.
 Because configuration pins default to LVTTL, these only have pull-down clamp diodes enabled.
 
 Virtex-E and Spartan-IIE
 
 These devices are provided with a pull-up clamp diode between the I/O pad and VCCO that allows them to be 5V-tolerant and reduces overshoot.
 The clamp diode is available with all I/O standards (including all configuration pins), excluding LVDS, LVPECL, GTL, GTL+, or LVCMOS1.8/2.5.
 
 Virtex-II Pro Only
 
 For Virtex-II Pro devices, all JTAG pins do not have clamp diodes, and the TDO is open drain. For more information,
 see the Virtex-II Pro/Virtex-II Pro X 3.3V I/O Design Guidelines Application Note(XAPP659).
 
 Virtex-II/-II Pro/-4/-5/-6 and Spartan-3
 
 For these devices, the following pins have pull-up and pull-down clamp diodes:
 
 JTAG pins (except for Virtex-II Pro)
 GCK0, GCK1, GCK2, GCK3
 M0, M1, M2
 CCLK
 DONE
 PROGRAM
 TDI, TDO, TMS, TCK
 DXN, DXP (Temperature-sensing diode pins)
 Note: VCCINT, VCCO, GND have a protection circuit, however,it might not be an explicit diode to Vcco and GND.
 
   
 Spartan -3A/-3AN/-6
 
 These devices have no pull-up diode clamps and use a floating n-well instead.
