IMPACT-Xilinx Platform Cable USB II
in [FPGA]
|
From: Serkan on 8 Sep 2009 08:18 I have a custom board that uses usb and has 2 fpgas (spartan3 200 - spartan 3 4000) I am using Xilinx platform cable USB II to program the fpga I am using windows xp pro I am using Xilinx 9.1.03i When I press initialize chain button in impact tool some popup question says=> "There are many unknown devices being detected. Press yes to continue or Press NO to stop" If I say yes. It finds too many devices (above 100) If I say no it gives an error => ERROR: IMPACT:585 A problem may exist in the hardware configuration. Check that the cable, scan chain, ... Sometimes impact tool shows the chain with 1 device missing out of 4 (2 fpga 2 prom ) There was no problem with the programming before. I programmed some other fpga and then it started. So I do not think that it is a hardware related problem on my side. I can program the fpga, if i disconnect and connect again (many times) my custom board and platform cable and change the location of the usb they are connected in my computer. ------------------------------------------------IMPACT COMMAND LINE ----------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Welcome to iMPACT // *** BATCH CMD : setMode -bs // *** BATCH CMD : setMode -bs GUI --- Auto connect to cable... // *** BATCH CMD : setCable -port auto AutoDetecting cable.

Test the adapter with some other board. If the other board doesn't program, fix the adapter. But the error looks like some error in your JTAG chain.

What I cant understand is what happens when I unplug the board or adapter from my computer and plug again? how can it start to work/ program again what is it got to with the chain?

I don't understand what you want to say with the last sentence. But broken hardware, e.g. a JTAG Pin not soldered right can give a lott of problems, especially work from time to time and don't work else... -- Uwe Bonnes bon(a)elektron.ikp.physik.tu-darmstadt.de Institut fuer Kernphysik Schlossgartenstrasse 9 64289 Darmstadt --------- Tel. 06151 162516 -------- Fax. 06151 164321 ----------

Even though I cant program the fpga most of the times, I found a weird solution to program it sometimes. It is like this: I just unplug Xilinx platform cable USB II from my computer and and plug to another usb port, (after 10 tries it works) I cant understand the reason behind this.
