xc3sprog

JTAG flashing tool for FPGAs, CPLDs and EEPROMs

Description

xc3sprog is a suite of utilities for programming Xilinx FPGAs, CPLDs, and EEPROMs with the Xilinx Parallel Cable and other JTAG adapters under Linux. xc3sprog runs as a command-line application.

The main features include:

- Reading a .BIT file from Xilinx design tools and programming it into an

FPGA.

- Reading a JEDEC file and programming it into a CPLD.

- Programming a .BIT file into an on-board configuration PROM.

- Programming a binary image into on-board SPI flash memory.

- Reading the contents of a PROM chip back to a file.

- Programming AVR microcontrollers.

The functionality of xc3sprog is similar to that of Xilinx IMPACT. There are also similarities with other free JTAG tools, such as UrJTAG. However, xc3sprog has a number of advantages:

- xc3sprog is free software.

- It is a command-line tool.

- It works on Linux without the need to install binary "cable-drivers".

(Although some types of JTAG cables need to load firmware.)

- It uses an optional configuration file to recognize new JTAG devices.

- It contains programming algorithms for the supported devices, enabling

the direct use of binary files (.BIT / JEDEC) from design tools (as opposed

to intermediate SVF/STAPLE files).
