Another DIY Programmer Design

Post by silversteel » Tue Mar 11, 2025 3:47 pm

There's probably a million ways to flash your CPLD but this is what I've been using, its a parallel port programmer design I threw together based on the old cheap-tag for programming the IDE-EXI and other 3.3v XC9500 series CPLD devices like the USBGecko clones, it uses USB-C to provide power to the programmer, I made it so all I'd need to do is just use a clip connected to the programmer and the target board and plug it to the back of my old laptop.
