XDS100V2 CPLD update

hi

i have "seed electronics" XDS100V2, recently i have updated the CPLD and things got worse

can anybody tell me while updateing the CPLD what should be the value of  "verbose level" and what does it mean

if possible please send me the synatax of the command(i have used "xds100v2_cpldprog.exe -v(4) 100v2_cpld.xsvf )  

 

best regards

  • Ravindra,

    There are instructions for updating the CPLD here.

  • Adding to Dan's reply, this quote is from the Wiki article:

    If your manufacturer built the XDS100v2 according to the reference design, you will be able to upgrade the XDS100v2 CPLD via SW. If your manufacturer did not follow the XDS100v2 reference design, please contact your manufacturer directly.
    You may want to check with SEED Electronics to double check whether or not their emulator was indeed built according to the reference design.

    *edit* I am not familiar with the verbose level specifically, but presumably this controls the amount of feedback given during the update (the higher the level, the more feedback but probably the slower the update).

    Hi tim/dan

    I have referred to the document for which you have sent the link, before updating

    In that the information present is all about , additional things that are added in the CPLD progm

    all the information i got form the site is

    "xds100v2_cpldprog USAGE
    ---------------------
    From the command line:
    xds100v2_cpldprog.exe -v(1-4) filename.xsvf

    The programmer takes two parmameters
    1. -v : verbose level 1-4.
    2. xsvf file as filename.xsvf.

    PROGRAMMING THE CPLD
    ---------------------
    1. Connect xds100v2 to the PC via USB 2.0.

    2. The directory has 2 xsvf files.
    idcode.xsvf - used to read and verify the idcode of the xilinx device.
    xds100v2_cpldprog.exe -v 4 idcode.xsvf
    xds100v2_cpld.xsvf - used to erase,program and verify the fpga.
    xds100v2_cpldprog.exe xds100v2_cpld.xsvf
                    The xds100v2_cpld.xsvf is the most recent version available
                    for the Spectrum Digital xds100v2 and has several enhancements
                    JTAG pin tri-state control. The cpld source updates are available
                    from Texas Instruments.

    3. You can use any one of these files as input or use your own .xsvf to program the device.

    4. Sample Output on successful program completion will be:
    xds100v2_cpldprog xds100v2_cpld.xsvf
    XSVF Player v5.01, Xilinx, Inc.
    Found 2 USB 2.x devices
    Opened Texas Instruments Inc.XDS100 Ver 2.0 B, at Location 21266
    XSVF file = xds100v2_cpld.xsvf
    SUCCESS - Completed XSVF execution.
    Execution Time = 22.359 seconds"

     

    that's why i had i doubt that , i have done correctly or not,,

    system even acknowledge me that the update was successful

    but any how i contact the manufacturer and update you

     

    regards
