Honored ContributorWhere do I download the XP driver for the USB-Blaster?
According to the USB-Blaster Download Cable User Guide, you're supposed to download it from this page, but I haven't been able to find it: www.altera.com/support/software/drivers (http://www.altera.com/support/software/drivers)
Honored ContributorHi Grant,
The various drivers are part of the installed ACDS in the $QUARTUS_ROOTDIR/drivers/usb-blaster directory. Cheers, - UraHonored ContributorI am also looking for the driver but I am using ASAP2_1023.exe and I dont have Quartus. Should I download the free version of Quartus to find the driver?
THank youHonored ContributorI would assume the driver to be part of the ASAP installation package, but I didn't use it since years. The above driver download link is still valid, however.
Honored Contributortry to search "usb blaster driver" in Altera website, i remembered there is step-by-step flow teaching you how to find and install the driver. =)
Honored ContributorDownload the Programmer/Signal Tap, it includes the driver:
https://www.altera.com/support/software/download/programming/quartus2/dnl-quartus2_programmer.jspHonored ContributorI have installed the drivers as suggested, but I am having trouble downloading the firmware. I am ASAP2_1023.exe an dtryin to download firmware for 5 EPM9560 EPLDs and one EPM7064 EPLD.
When I try to select "Multi-Device JTAG Chain Setup" it seems as if the programm can not see the EPLDs.
