Title: Programming cables for TE0600-01 and TE0630-00
Post by: JEisenbraun on March 13, 2012, 12:26:26 PM
Hi,

The documentation states that the following programming cables should be used for the TE0600-01.

Digilent XUP USB-JTAG Programming Cable (XUP-USB-JTAG)
or
Xilinx Platform Cable USB II (HW-USB-II-G)

Is the Digilent JTAG HS1 Programming Cable also supported?  It's a little cheaper than the Digilent XUP USB-JTAG Programming Cable and it looks like it provides the same capabilities (unless I'm missing something).

Also, for the TE0630-00, the doc just has a link to the JTAG programming cables.

Does that mean that ANY of the programming cables will work with this module?

Thanks!
John

Dear John,
JTAG HS1 is also suitable, it is recognized by the newer ISE versions. Please see here: http://forum.trenz-electronic.de/index.php/topic,133.0.html
Currently, we sell only cables suitable for Xilinx FPGA's. They all work with all Xilinx based modules, but please take a look if the connectors match the boards. If you have any doubt on a certain combination, please ask.

best regards
