JTAG access from user design in Altera FPGAs

Sep 28, 2012 2 Replies

Hi,



does somebody know, how to access the JTAG port from a user design (VHDL) in Altera FPGA (cyclone 4)?



TIA

I don't know, if you can use the JTAG port as normal pins, as you can do with some of the configuration pins after configuration, but you can use a megafunction to communicate over the JTAG protocol with your entities:

Thanks a lot, that's exactly what I have looked for!
