12 years agoI tired an EtherBlaster in place of a USB blaster hoping that it would download software to a Nios2 a bit faster, but there is no significant improvement. Maybe 13 kBps (104 kbps) could be a bit slow for the portential of an 8 MHz jtag connection, but perhaps there isnt any way to speed up the edit-compile-download cycle other than to implement an Ethernet boot.
