Hi Samet,

Please find my response below:

1) Is adapter or reader required for communication other than Usb Blaster for EPM7032SLC44-10?

It depends on what you are going to do with adapter or reader with the EPM7032. If for programming purposes, you may use USB Blaster.

2) I am giving external 5V but it gives no chain jtag error in Quartus program. No device detected error.

So I am assuming it has no problem now? Because you mentioned that you had JTAG connection error on quartus? I am confused. Can you please clarify?

3) How do I make which adapter or connection to activate EPM7032SLC44-10 communication ends? How to make connection details for IC or communication information of IC?

May I know what communication you are referring to? Sending data from 1 device to EPM7032?

Thank You.

Regards,

Bruce

    Hello Sir.

    It is necessary to give extra power for the usb blaster. After connecting target power, I did IC auto detect and saw the IC on quartus. (blank IC). this is what I want to do; I want to read the software of the IC that I removed from the device. but IC jtag ports are disabled. Is there a method to enable jtag ports?
