  • Page 19: Configuration, Status, And Setup Elements

    Embedded USB-Blaster The embedded USB-Blaster is implemented using a Type-B USB connector (CN1), a Future Technologies FT245BL USB PHY device (U16), and an Altera EPM7064 MAX II CPLD (U17). This allows the configuration of the FPGA using a USB cable directly connected between the USB port on the board (CN1) and a USB port of a PC running the Quartus II software.

    CPLD shares the flash interface with the FPGA. The configuration program select jumper, PGMSEL, (J62) selects between two Programmer Object Files (.pof)—factory .pof or user .pof file stored in the flash. The FPP controller uses the Altera Parallel Flash Loader (PFL) megafunction to configure the FPGA by reading data from the flash and converting it to FPP format.

    (J28). This header provides another method for configuring the FPGA (U33) using an Altera USB-Blaster with the Quartus II Programmer running on a PC. The MAX II JTAG configuration jumper (J26) allows the MAX II CPLD device to be removed from the JTAG chain so that the FPGA is the only device on the JTAG chain.
