Fig.1: schematics. The only slightly interesting bits are the 4 TAP-lines going between the MCU's, and the fact they share mutually-exclusive use of the serial Tx-line (the Rx-line is always shared).
Fig.2: JTAG boundary-scan chain. A host talks to the TAP (Test Access Port) controller using 4 lines, shifting data in and out.
Fig.3: 2 JTAG boundary-scan cells. One cell sits between core logic and an input pin, and the other sits between core logic and an output pin.
Fig.4: 'before'. The big MCU there (ATmega32) is horribly oversized both in size and ability for this application, but ok, was all I had.
Fig.5: 'after'. Finished toy-board. The funny thing is that when it's finished and toying has been done, it'll totally useless.
