FPGA Programming over External USB-Blaster
The JTAG programming header provides another method for configuring the FPGA
(U15) using an external USB-Blaster device with the Quartus II Programmer running
on a PC. The external USB-Blaster is connected to the board through the JTAG
connector (J8). Removing all shunt jumpers from the JTAG chain header (J11) removes
all devices from the JTAG chain so that the FPGA is the only device on the chain. To
add the MAX
II CPLD EPM2210 System Controller to the JTAG chain, place a shunt
on the JTAG chain header (J11) pin 1 and 2.

Board Reference LED Name Description
D3 Power Blue LED. Illuminates when 12-V power is active.
D7 JTAG_AT_SEL Green LED. Illuminated when the default JTAG chain is broken and the MAX II
EPM2210 System Controller has control of the FPGA JTAG pins.
D13 CONF DONE Green LED. Illuminates when the FPGA is successfully configured. Driven by the
MAX II CPLD EPM2210 System Controller.
D14 INIT DONE Green LED. Illuminates when the FPGA is successfully configured and is in user
mode. This setting must be selected in the Quartus II programmer.
D11 LOAD Green LED. Illuminates when the MAX II CPLD EPM2210 System Controller is
actively configuring the FPGA. Driven by the MAX II CPLD EPM2210 System
Controller.
D10 Error Red LED. Illuminates when the MAX II CPLD EPM2210 System Controller fails to
configure the FPGA. Driven by the MAX II CPLD EPM2210 System Controller.
D12 FACTORY Green LED. Illuminates when the factory image is loaded to the FPGA. Driven by
the MAX II CPLD EPM2210 System Controller.
