Oct 27, 2011 at 20:26 comment added Saad @DavidKessner Your solutions are usually the most elegant! I'll try this before messing with any buffers.
Oct 27, 2011 at 20:22 comment added user3624 I would try it without buffers, but with higher value pullups, and see what happens. No sense making things more complicated than they need to be. If EMI becomes an issue, I'd put a 50 ohm resistor between the CPLD and the harness, with a 0.1 uF cap to GND on the CPLD side of the resistor.
Oct 27, 2011 at 20:09 comment added Saad @DavidKessner I was recommend to use a stronger pull up/down. I was told this would help with EMI which is a concern because I'm testing long wires (~10m in length). How it helps with EMI, I'm not quite sure as I'm still very inexperienced. I should add, I'm not too concerned with transmitting EMI. The device is never going to be marketed - it's for internal testing of harnesses. I'm more concerned about getting false-positive or false-negative due to interference. Other than that, I was told its good practice to buffer a signal that's leaving the PCB. What would you advise?
Oct 27, 2011 at 18:57 comment added user3624 Why not just change your pullup/down resistors? Maybe something like 50k or even 100k ohms.
