Chapter 1: VC707 Evaluation Board Features

USB JTAG

[Figure
JTAG configuration is provided through a Digilent onboard USB-to-JTAG configuration
logic module (U26) where a host computer accesses the VC707 board JTAG chain through
a type-A (host side) to micro-B (VC707 board side) USB cable.
A 2-mm JTAG header (J4) is also provided in parallel for access by Xilinx download cables
such as the Platform Cable USB II and the Parallel Cable IV.
The JTAG chain of the VC707 board is illustrated in
allowed at any time regardless of FPGA mode pin settings. JTAG initiated configuration
takes priority over the configuration method selected through the FPGA mode pin settings
at SW11.

When an FMC mezzanine card is attached to the VC707 board it is automatically added to
the JTAG chain through electronically controlled single-pole single-throw (SPST) switches
U27 and U28. The SPST switches are in a normally closed state and transition to an open
state when an FMC mezzanine card is attached. Switch U27 adds an attached FMC1 HPC
mezzanine card to the FPGAs JTAG chain as determined by the
FMC_HPC_PRSNT_M2C_B signal. Switch U28 adds an attached FMC2 HPC daughter
card to the FPGAs JTAG chain as determined by the FMC2_LPC_PRSNT_M2C_B signal.
The attached FMC card must implement a TDI-to-TDO connection via a device or bypass
jumper to ensure that the JTAG chain connects to the FPGA U1.
The JTAG connectivity on the VC707 board allows a host computer to download
bitstreams to the FPGA using the Xilinx® iMPACT software. In addition, the JTAG
connector allows debug tools such as the ChipScope™ Pro analyzer or a software
debugger to access the FPGA. The iMPACT software tool can also indirectly program the
Linear BPI Flash memory. To accomplish this, the iMPACT software configures the FPGA
with a temporary design to access and program the BPI memory device.
