I'm having problems understanding the line above + first 1/2 of the line below.
Maybe something like:

	  Hardware that is equipped with a JTAG microcontroller can be
	  supported by using this driver's interfaces.

	                                              ^^^^? Instruction?

	                                       ^^^^^^^^^^^? Data?
