FPGA Programming over External USB-Blaster

The JTAG header provides another method for configuring the FPGA (U29) using an
external USB-Blaster device with the Quartus II Programmer running on a PC. The
external USB-Blaster connects to the board through the JTAG header (J93). The JTAG
DIP switch (S7) allows the MAX II CPLD device to be removed from the JTAG chain
so that the FPGA is the only device on the JTAG chain.

JTAG Header

The JTAG header provides another method for configuring the FPGA using an Altera
USB-Blaster dongle with the Quartus II Programmer running on a PC.

Figure 2–5

shows the schematic connections for the dedicated JTAG programming header (J93).
The program MSEL switch (S7) allows the MAX II CPLD device to be removed from
the JTAG chain so that the FPGA is the only device on the JTAG chain.

The MAX II CPLD System Controller must be in the chain to use some of the GUI
interfaces. To connect the MAX II CPLD in chain, set pins 6-7 of the program MSEL
switch (S7) to 1.
