Bus Blaster JTAG debugger / Re: programming spartan 3 using urJtag on Raspberry Pi
Hi grcg,

    I'm no expert, but it seems like there's something not lining up between your SVF file and the hardware.  As I understand things, the SVF is just a list of JTAG commands and their expected results.  UrJTAG is telling you that it got a different result from the hardware vs what the SVF says.

So, perhaps it's worth starting with some more basic debugging - maybe try toggling IO pins on the Spartan over JTAG or something along those lines.  If that works, then have a look at the process that creates your SVF file.    -Ian-

Bus Blaster JTAG debugger / Any reason to go for bus blaster v3 over v4?
I'm in the market for a general purpose JTAG tool.  Immediate use is for Analog Devices ADSP-BF525, but will likely end up using it on a variety of ARM parts and maybe AVR32.  No immediate need for the SWV support, but it might be nice down the road.

On SEEED's site, there is a note "most users will be better off with Bus Blaster v3".  Is there a downside to buying the v4 other than the additional $10 price?  Thanks!  -Ian-

DirtyPCBs support / Re: Circular PCBs
I just happen to have this one on my desk - from a 2-sided protopack.  It's quite round, except the one teeny nub on the edge (right side in photo) from where it was snapped off.  Would be nice and smooth after a pass with a flat file:
