Hardware Description

3.8Multi-ICE support

The core module provides support for debug using JTAG. It provides a Multi-ICE connector and JTAG scan paths around the development system. Figure 3-10shows the Multi-ICE connector and the CONFIG link.

Figure 3-10 JTAG connector, CONFIG link, and LED

The CONFIG link is used to enable in-circuit programming of the FPGA and PLDs using Multi-ICE (see Debugging modes on page 3-23).

The Multi-ICE connector provides a set of JTAG signals allowing third-party JTAG debugging equipment to be used (see JTAG signals on page 3-24). If you are debugging a development system with multiple core modules, connect the Multi-ICE hardware to the top core module.
