Programming the FPG-EYE board
From ErikaWiki
After you have synthesized a logic circuit with ispLever, you get a *.jed file. This is a configuration file that you can put into Fpga. To do this you need two things:
- Programming Cable.
- ispVM System software.
Programming Cable
First you have to buy a Lattice jtag programmer cable. There are a lot of compatible Lattice programming cable. A example a simple low cost programming cable.
ispVM System
This software is default installed together to software ispLEVER. You Can find it in (installation directory Lattice)/Accessories/ispVM System
- We can connect the JTAG connector to the FPG-EYE board.
- Now power your FPG-EYE, then we can open ispVM software.
- After we have pushed on Scan button, the software should find the Fpga model like in the follow image.
- Then we click on FileName/IR-Lenght and then we click on Browes and select jed file.
- Now we click on OK and we return on ispVM main page then we click on GO and program the FPGA on FPG-EYE board.
