4.1. JTAG Download Interface
The CrossLink-NX Evaluation Board has a built-in download controller for programming the CrossLink-NX device. It uses
an FT2232H Future Technology Devices International (FTDI) part to convert USB to JTAG. To use the built-in download
cable, connect the USB cable from a PC with Radiant Programmer tool installed to the mini USB connector on the board
(J2). A mini USB to USB-A cable is included in the CrossLink-NX Evaluation Kit. The USB hub on the PC detects the cable
of the USB function on Port 0, making the built-in cable available for use with the Radiant programming software.
4.2. Alternate JTAG Download Interface
J1 is an 8-pin standalone JTAG header used with an external Lattice download cable that is available separately, when
the FTDI part is disabled from the JTAG chain after setting the JP1 jumper. A USB download cable can be attached to
the board using J1 to interface with the CrossLink-NX. For details on the connection between the USB download cable
and J1, refer to
Programming Cable User's Guide
J1 can also be used as test point when USB to JTAG is working. Additionally, you can enable the JTAG access path
through the Raspberry Pi header (JP5) for customer applications. This is done by connecting the JP5 header to the J1
header through some onboard resistors. The JTAG connections between J1 and JP5 are listed in
