DL_DOD Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Hi, I've got a spartan6 board and I want to read circuit data out the JTAG TDO port. Can one of the digilent USB cables help me do this? My PC is running windows7 and I have a USB platform cable connection to the test board. Does adept have commands like "get_pin" that can grab circuit data? I have the bscan_spartan6 primitive instantiated. DL_DOD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbobrowicz Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Hi DL_DOD, We're still getting the forum off its feet, it's in somewhat of a "Beta" state right now. If you bear with us awhile you'll see our response times drop . Anyways, the answer to your question is yes: you can manually access the TDI, TDO, TMS, and TCK lines using the Adept SDK libraries and our JTAG programming cables. Specifically, I would recommend the JTAG-HS2 (http://www.digilentinc.com/Products/Detail.cfm?NavPath=2,395,1052&Prod=JTAG-HS2). Before you decide to buy, you should peruse the API documentation for the Adept SDK, available here: http://www.digilentinc.com/Products/Detail.cfm?NavPath=2,66,828&Prod=ADEPT2. Just download the version of Adept SDK for your OS, and the documentation is included. Specifically, you will need to look into the DMGR and DJTG libraries. I've had some experience working with BSCAN primitives, post if you have any questions and I might be able to help out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DL_DOD Posted October 15, 2014 Author Share Posted October 15, 2014 I was hoping for a digilent reply. I won't buy cable until I hear someone say yes you can do that with this cable. If I do buy the cable and it works then :# of DOD users * $/cable = $ for Digilent. thanks, DL_DOD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
