Hi everybody,
I'm going to build a USB JTAG cable and I don't know what protocol should I use for communication. The only cable I can fully implement this time is the Digilent USB cable... (according to the code of Zoltan Csizmadia's cable server project) I was trying to reverse engineer Xilinx's USB Platform cable protocol, but after a point I gave up. (Mostly becouse the firmware of the cable is shipped with the PC software, so they can easily modify the protocol in the new version of ISE)
So, some questions: Is Digilent's protocol free to implement in my device?
Is there any cable with open protocol? (with a GPL like license) If exists an open protocol cable, is this well supported by applications?
Thanks, goss
