Hi Alkesh,


Could you share what the issue you're facing? Btw, there are no official public APIs for direct USB-Blaster access outside of Quartus-Prime. However, you have a few alternative options:


  1. JAM STAPL Player: JAM STAPL Player which you're currently using.
  2. Quartus Standalone Programmer + jtagserver: You can use the libaji_client open-source library to interact with jtagserver for advanced JTAG tasks.


Regards,

Fakhrul

Hello,

I am using Quartus prime Standard version, with this is it possible to:
1. Execute the .svf file?

2. I do not have svf2jam.exe with this version, is it possible to get it ?

3. Quartus Standalone Programmer + jtagserver: how do I use this with python application. Do you have any example source?

Still I did not get the proper solution to work on my JTAG device. A quick response would be really helpful.

Thanks,

Alkesh Shah
