17 years agoI am sure you would have powered on the board. So that possibility is ruled out. What remains is the JTAG connection. Three possible causes of error are there:
1. You haven't downloaded the correct .sof file to the FPGA. 2. If you are configuring from a configuration device or flash, then the configuration device/flash don't have the correct image (.pof). 3. The cable that you use is not correctly configured.
