Xilinx JTAG Cable under Linux

Posted by: ben in FPGA, Linux

Again the issue with the Xilinx JTAG cable under Linux. This post is just a reminder… After putting the cable into the USB port, nothing happens. ‘lsusb’ shows the device but the led on the JTAG box doesn’t light up, which means the firmware isn’t loaded. The firmware is provided by Xilinx and it can be loaded with:

/sbin/fxload -v -t fx2 -I /usr/share/xusb_xlp.hex -D /proc/bus/usb/<bus>/<dev>
