Woah ! you've done such an amazing job ! I cant' wait to try it ! I hope i will this WE. You may laugh but for the resistors, 100R means 100 Ohms ? I know that 4K7 means 4.7 KOhms. I'm gonna build your JTAG cable and try to program a chip alone. R = ohms K = kilohms M = Megohms for the next time, t...

viewtopic.php?f=23&t=865&start=12
the last post, someone had the same issue, but no solution for now :/

May i ask you something ? how do you set the parallel port ? i mean, ECP, EPP or else ?

Me again ! So i cut down the cable, i think it's now the same length as the one in the tutorial. I still have the same fail. I tried this: - program another CPLD : same fail (but i don't know of i wired enough VCC and GND, i will ask later). - program with no cable at all. IMPACT ask for checking th...

I used the mem card slot to power the CPLD too.

Hello and thank you for replying me so fast ! @ emu_kidid : sorry, you may laugh but i don't understand what you mean "What does it say when you initialize the chain and return the Id in impact?" i don't know what is initializing the chain or else. @ megalomaniac : aerf, my cable must be a...

Hello ! Me again ! It's been a looong time since i came here. I finally bought XC95144XL chips on ebay and made the adapter and JTAG cable But now i cant' program the chip. I got an error: // *** BATCH CMD : Program -p 1 -e -v PROGRESS_START - Starting Operation. INFO:iMPACT:583 - '1': The idcode re...

Hello, me again :) Before starting soldering anything anywhere, i'm doing a complete list of the differents pinouts (Xilink, IDE, JTAG) in order to understand well all the things to do. And I already have two questions : - in the datasheet of the Xilink chip (link http://www.xilinx.com/support/docum...

Thank you dilav.
You may lough at me but what is the difference between VCCINT and VCCIO ?
Do they have both to be connected to 3.3v ?

Hello and thanks again. So, i've finaly read almost all the topics linked at the beginnig of this one. Here what i've listed to do: - prepare the Xilink chip. I mean, check each trace from pin to end and be sure that nothing is connected to. When needed, I'll cut traces and drill little holes on the...

Hello everyone ! I wanna thank all of you for answering me so quickly. Due to lot of job at my home, i ddin't read the topic you linked to me SouLSLayeR but i hope i will study it this week-end. @ emu_kidid, i do think too it's a PS2 modchip, a Ripper maybe. So, this is my first question : how do I ...

Hello everyone. Let me introduce myself with a fex words. I'm french so sometime it can be difficult to explain exactly what i want/need or understand. I've made many "simple" mods on many consoles fromAtari 2600 (S-video mod) to Wii (Cyclo chip), specially 60Hz mods or country unlocking. ...
