Using Altera ByteBlaster to transfer data in UP1/UP2 Board

Some important JTAG notes.

TCK TDO TMS TDI

1 3 5 7 9 (JTAG PIN NUMBER)

2 4 6 8 10 (JTAG PIN NUMBER)

GND VCC GND

TCK is pin 1 JTAG and pin 2 PP or data(0), bit 0 register DATA

TMS is pin 5 JTAG and pin 3 PP or data(1), bit 1 register DATA

TDO is pin 3 JTAG and pin 11 PP or Busy, bit 7 register STATUS

TDI is pin 9 JTAG and pin 8 PP or data(6), bit 6 register DATA

Use register CONTROL 1 to enable SPP for byteblasterMV ( _outp(CONTROL,2) )
Use register CONTROL 2 to enable SPP for byteblasterII ( _outp(CONTROL,1) )

Bit Byte Value
0 1 TCK
1 2 TMS
2 4
3 8
4 16
5 32
6 64 TDI
7 128

If you want send TCK=1 then you have to assign parallel port by 00000001 = d’1.
If you want send TMS=1 then you have to assign parallel port by 00000010 = d’2.
If you want send TDI=1 then you have to assign parallel port by 01000000 = d’64.

Here is the example of c code for jtag

RS232 Interface using HIN232CP

Either 0.1µF or 1µF capacitors may be used.
The V+ capacitor may be terminated to VCC or to GND.

R1N connected to pin 3 of DB9 connector, not pin 7. MAX232CPE from MAXIM can be use.

Using Altera ByteBlasterMV to transfer data

First, you have to design verilog/vhdl for jtag interface and implement it on FPGA.

In my design, the design files consist of :

Here is the c code jtag.c (jtag-ddr2.pdf)

Dowload conio.pdf and convert it to conio.h

Put jtag.c and conio.h in the same directory, for example “C:\Cygwin\home\mul\c\jtag”

Run the gcc (in Cygwin bash):

gcc -Wall -mno-cygwin jtag.c -o jtag

don’t forget to put rgb0.txt, rgb1.txt, rgb2.txt and rgb3.txt in that directory.

run the allowio.exe (in Windows prompt) :

AllowIO.exe -a jtag.exe
