14 years agoYou should consider, that selecting individual devices in the JTAG chain for configuration involves some overhead. In my opinion, the configuration scheme figure 9–28. jtag configuration of a single device using a microprocessor won't be well suited for this method, although it can be basically extended to a JTAG chain. I suggest to provide a JTAG chain for test and debugging purposes and use a PS or FPP configuration scheme that allows individual access to each FPGA, e.g. by using separate command and status and common DATA and DCLK lines.
