14 years agoError JTAG chain problem detected
My design worked for about 3 hours and now gives me this error. I just can't understand what is wrong with it now. I didn't do anything wrong.
!Error: JTAG chain problem detected !Error: The TDI connection to the first detected device EP2C8 might be shorted to VCC or is an open circuit !Error: The TCK and TMS connections to the device before the first detected device EP2C8 might have a problem !Info: Detected 1 device(s) !Info: Device 1: EP2C8 device is EP2C8Q208C8 TDI pulled high with 10Kohm resistor also TMS TCK pulled down with same resistor value Pin 2 on JTAG header connected to GND Pins 4 and 6 connected to VCC 3.3V Pin 10 connected to GND TDO connected directly to cyclone II MSEL 0 and 1 to GND nCE to GND also on board is used EPCS4SI8 but I disconnect that one but problem remains.1 Reply

Hm pin6 on JTAG header was connected to the 3.3V line but this is not suitable for USB blaster so maybe this was a problem now its working :)
