Centos Vivado Xilinx JTAG Cable

[dec]

Hi - I just tried to install the XUP USB-JTAG Programming Cable from diligent.

 

I also have a Diligent Programming Cable.

Centos can see both cables (see below)

Vivado can see the Diligent programming cable but not the Xilinx one. Given the physical constraints of the installation only the Xilinx one will work.

Are there any specific instructions to get the Xilinx cable going?

 

$lsusb | grep "Xilinx/|Future"

Bus 002 Device 003: ID 03fd:000d Xilinx, Inc. 

Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0403:6014 Future Technology Devices International, Ltd FT232H Single HS USB-UART/FIFO IC

HI @dec,

The cable drivers do not install for Vivado automatically with Linux. If you haven not done this here is the commands for installing cable drivers for version 2016.4, if a different version change the version in the command:

cd /opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2016.4/data/xicom/cable_drivers/lin64/install_script/install_drivers/
sudo ./install_drivers

cheers,

Jon

I had this same problem for 2018.3. This solution works with 2018.3 too.

Hi @Annie B,

Glad to hear that the terminal commands worked for you.
