    Detailed Description 17. System ACE and CompactFlash Connector The Xilinx System ACE CompactFlash (CF) configuration controller allows a Type I or Type II CompactFlash card to program the FPGA through the JTAG port. Both hardware and software data can be downloaded through the JTAG port. The System ACE controller supports up to eight configuration images on a single CompactFlash card.

    20. Xilinx XC95144XL CPLD A Xilinx XC95144XL CPLD is connected to the flash memory and the FPGA configuration signals. This CPLD connection supports applications where flash memory programs the FPGA.
  • Page 28: Usb Controller With Host And Peripheral Ports

    The JTAG configuration port for the board (J20) allows for device programming and FPGA debug. The JTAG port supports the Xilinx Parallel Cable III or Parallel Cable IV products. Third-party configuration products might also be available. The JTAG chain can also be extended to an expansion board by setting jumper J26 accordingly.
