MultiPRO Desktop Tool Description
The MultiPRO Desktop Tool (Figure 1) is a multi-function
programming and configuration cable. When mated with
MultiPRO device adapters, it can program individual
Platform Flash PROMs, XC18V00 ISP PROMs and
CoolRunner-II CPLDs. Alternatively, the tool can perform in-
system programming or FPGA configuration when attached
to user hardware by way of the included ribbon cables. IEEE
1149.1 (JTAG), serial peripheral interface (SPI), Xilinx
Slave-Serial, and Xilinx Slave-SelectMAP (8-bit) protocols
are supported in ISP mode.
A variety of device adapters are available for standalone
programming of Xilinx Platform Flash PROMs, XC18V00
ISP PROMs, and CoolRunner-II CPLDs.
X-Ref Target - Figure 1
Designed for use in a desktop environment, the MultiPRO
Desktop Tool interfaces to a PC using the industry standard
IEEE 1284 parallel port. An external AC power brick
provides +5V DC to the pod. An integral power switch
facilitates fail-safe connection to target systems.
