Troubles with recognizing of MAX II

--- Quote Start ---

Maybe someone can explain me where is a mistake?:confused:

Perhaps you are using an old version of Quartus that does not recognize the MAX II device? What version are you using? Create a new project and see if you can select the MAX II device as the target.

What kind of JTAG cable are you using? USB-Blaster or parallel port ByteBlaster? Have you tried another cable?

Cheers,

Dave

Thanks for answer!

I use a Quartus 11.0 version & USB byte blaster!

I don't have any problems in choosing a device family when I compile a project at all, but when I try to programm a target in a "programmer window", I have this: "Error: Can't recognize silicon ID for device 1"!

But when I push "auto detect" buttom in a "programmer window" the software detect the target right!

The target has a mono-power 3.3V on both banks & core!

Best Regards,

Roman.

How do you know its the right target? Can you post the JTAG ID, and then look at the MAX II handbook and see if that ID is correct.

Is this a custom board, or a standard board? Do you have another board you can check? I suspect you have a JTAG chain issue. Signal integrity perhaps? Do you have an oscilloscope you can use to look at the signals on the pins?
