Cyclone 10 GX FPGA Development Kit embedded Download Cable

Hello.

I am working with new Cyclone 10 GX FPGA Development Kit.

And I am not able to use embedded download cable.

When I plug USBA - microUSB cable to PC and power up the board, Windows 10 OS reports an error:

In device manager:

I've tried different PCs, different cables, but the result is the same.

+3.3V supply of CY68013 is ok, reset is High, oscillator runs 24 MHz.

If I plug external USB Blaster to J11 connector, I can successfully scan JTAG chan, C10GX can be successfully programmed.

How to solve this issue?

Best regards,

Oleg.

  • Looks like the problem lies in jtagserver.

    jtagconfig --serverinfo said, that server version was 19.1

    Then I run:

    1. jtagserver --uninstall

    2. cd to Q17.1 folder, where jtagserver resides.

    3. jtagserver --install

    Now jtagconfig --serverinfo says, that server version is 17.1

    And embedded cable recognizes:

    and works well.

    I have an experience with CY7C68013 and I know, that it is a quite capricious thing.

    Could it be possible, that there is something wrong with MAX10 (U2), which is connected to usb controller?

    When I scan JTAG chain by external balster, this chip (U2) presents on the chain, but may be FW is wrong or missing?

    Thank you, but no luck. The problem is still here.

    FYI:

    I have your old Lark Board. It aslo has embedded blaster, which is designed on CY7C68013. It works perfectly.
