Jun 27, 2004 0 Replies

Hey...



i hope there is a clever guy reading this channel and using Protel....



i have buyed a 3rd party FPGA board with a SpartanII SX2S300E... There is onboard Jtag (normal Xillinx Jtag)



But when i want to use it with protel and use soft instruments etc... i have to connet "2 Jtags" at one time, one for the Hard Jtag to program the FPGA and one to normal I/O Pins... Quite easy just a multiplexer... but...



Their owm Nanoboard has some kind a multiplexer so both chains can be selected at the same time...

I can see on the schematic there is 2 parellel jtags in the parellel cable.. but i can't use the 2'nd as it is... but even more there is a mode and a control bit i dunno if i can do something m,ultiplexing with...



Any one haveing a solution exept buying their board ?
