13 years ago --- Quote Start --- Yes, it is correct. I don't know of a good use case for having both the JTAG and AS connectors. Usually just having the JTAG one is enough. Read/Writing the EPCS is faster via the AS connector though. You don't need to make any changes, you can just that the .SOF file and make a .JIF file for indirect programming. --- Quote End --- I am looking at this app note: and it looks more involved than what I am willing to do. I think, because I don't want to brick my first prototype, I will stick with AS programming of the EPCS device. Any use in bringing out the JTAG anyway? Rich
