What programming cable supports the Cyclone EP2C5F256C8 device? I am using the USB Blaster and it doesn't seem to allowing me to program the device. The link below doesn't not list the Cyclone II.

      Aiman, Thanks for the reply. I am trying to examine the checksum from the Cyclone EP2C5F256C8 device? However, when I do a auto detect in the programming mode it detects the device, but it will not allow me to select any of the features: examine, program, verify, etc..? Do you know why?

    Hi Vue Lor,

    -May I know how did you perform this configuration?

    -What did you see when you were performing this? Is the feature grey out?

    -are you not able to select or is it a functionality problem?

    -What file did you use: .sof?.pof?

    -what is the bitsream?

    Regards,

    Aiman

      Aiman, I am using Quartus II 13 SP1 on a Window 7 64 bit, when I open Quartus. I go in the Tools tab and pick programmer. I do auto detect to detect my device, but then all the features are grey out and will not allow me select any feature?

      Aiman, Evidently, I figured that the EP2C5 wasn’t programmable? However, I am using Quartus 13 SP1 and USB Blaster on Windows 7 OS 64 bit, but for now I think I am ok. thanks for all your help?
