Honored ContributorHi all,
I came across two of this items, physically both looks about the same but when i looking this deeply in term fo support level, there is some differences as come from different company. So any one are using Terasic blaster instead of Altera one? as look like Terasic one looks cheaper.. Best from FAN.
Honored Contributori say just purchase the Altera build USB blaster, there fore there will be no excuse for Altera site to reject your request to support your issue when come to some complex debugging issue pairing with other vendor USB blaster.
Honored ContributorTerasic blasters have worked just fine for me in the past...
Honored ContributorMy Terasic Blaster works OK.
Honored ContributorTerasic better! cheaper.
Honored ContributorI am using USB blaster from Altera so that I could get them to support.
Honored ContributorHonored Contributorhow do we usually get technical support from terasic? through e-mail?
Honored ContributorCan we still fail issue to Altera for non Altera built board?
Honored Contributoryou can.... but like our friend vinhael mentioned, easier for debug with own built tool.
Honored ContributorAltera dont really care whether you're using a $50 programmer or $150 if you're going to buy $10000s of chips!
