Hi sstrell,

Thanks for the response. I have further three more questions.

Q1) So the Max II CPLD is the system controller is it?

Q2) And also what is the usage of EPCQ1024L in page 14 of the schematic?.

Q3) I understand Max II & Max V are used for configuring the on board USB blaster, and control configuration of FPGA from flash respectively. Is my understanding correct?

Thank you.

    1) no like I said, the Max II is for the USB Blaster. Again see the schematic. There’s a block diagram on the first page.
    2) I’m not at my computer now but that’s a configuration device with flash memory to store programming data.
    3) yes.
