implement the JTAG MASTER --ACT8990 by using FPGA

heavens sake why do you want todo this ??!

the 8990 is a very old biest, why duplicate it? just make your own JTAG master and be happy

I want to implement the JTAG MASTER --ACT8990 by using FPGA,Does wh have do the same thing? Could someone give me a hand please

Dear Chinese Student,

there are 3 kinds of people

1) those who go to school because "they teach in school" - those people learn nothing 2) those who go to school because they want to learn - whatever they learn is outdated info by the day they finish the school 3) those who learn that whatever there is to learn is up to them, those quit the school and start doing things and learn on the way of doing

if you dont want to be in category [1] then start learning!

JTAG master as standalone doesnt make much sense, if there is no application SW supporting it.

implementing JTAG MASTER in SW by any small microcontroller is very simple, and there is NO special hardware needed, all you need is 4 general purpose I/O pins. As example in

there is a special JTAG controller implemented in small Microcontroller, by using regular MCU IO pins the this Processors achives JTAG data transfer rate up to 4Mbit per second, at 8MHz processor clock, and this without any special hardware. Any processor with higher clock rate can get even higher JTAG clock rates.

If simple JTAG MASTER hardware speed up is required, then please take a look at

there is verilog implementation of JISP byte code player, if Bytes are written to it, then it converts them to JTAG, well it requires a specially prepared (tokenized) bytestream. When using this JISP player connected to some CPU via small fifo then very high sustained JTAG TCK speeds can be achived

and there is JTAG is your JTAG TAP master in VHDL

but my bet is that this info does not help you to pass your exam, you need to start LEARNING and most important DOING things yourself.

thats better attitude, I belive that if you do, you can do it. better.

The links I provided do not give anything quite ready to use, just those starting points known to me. Hopefully there was some usefulness in it. And hope you didnt mind my writing style, I am very open, so I say what I think. So get a Smile and start doing. And try keep smiling :)

Antti BTW I am at the moment quite engaged with JTAG from different aspects, both from master and slave side and also in supporting software, so if you make something better, please keep me posted, or better would be if there would be some result from your work that could be used by others.

I think your conclusion about three kinds of people is ver classical.I hope that we will have more intercommunion

almost ROTFL, I hope it too.

and I also hope there is nothing classical about me ;) at the uni some professor's where a little annoyed about me: "comes to my class, falls a sleep, wakes up to correct an error on the whiteboard and continues to sleep"

- it was almost about that. I did quit then...
