How do I work around this issue?

Solution

This issue is with the wait time in the SVF. The wait time specified is the max required by the Data Sheet. Increasing this time works around the issue by exceeding the specified wait time. To do this search for the expected TDO and increase the RUNTEST from RUNTEST 872000000 TCK to RUNTEST 1000000000 TCK.

Example

Original

// Loading device with 'JTAG_CMD_REG'command.
// Currently the maximum wait time is used as suggested by manufacturer.
// For better performance, edit the following wait time as needed.
RUNTEST 872000000 TCK;

Modified

// Loading device with 'JTAG_CMD_REG'command.
// Currently the maximum wait time is used as suggested by manufacturer.
// For better performance, edit the following wait time as needed.
RUNTEST 1000000000 TCK;
