How can I obtain the idcode.jam file for checking JTAG ID codes using the Jam language?

Description

The idcode.jam file is an ASCII text file that contains Jam language source code for reading the IEEE Std. 1149.1 Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) IDCODE from any JTAG-compliant Altera® device. This file can be used to debug embedded programming issues when using the Jam Player. The file can provide a good starting point to help determine whether the programming issue is hardware or software related.

You can download a compressed version of the file, called idcode.zip, from the Altera web site.

For information on how to use the idcode.jam file, refer to AN 100 (In-System Programmability Guidelines).
