BusBlaster w/ Altera Stratix v4?

May 17, 2012, 01:46:00 pm

Has anyone used the BusBlaster v2 with Altera Stratix 4 devices?

Say programming svf output from from Quartus with urJTAG?

Thanks,

I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work. As long as the jtag on stratix is in range of 1.8V-3.3V, it should work.
