Is the USB Blaster II capable of:

  • Programming of security keys and encrypted configuration files

The Ethernet Blaster was required in the past due to the current drive (amperage) requirements needed to burn in the keys.

So, is the USB Blaster II capable of doing this in its place? I am using a Stratix III device.
