Overview

TIAO Universal Buffered Parallel JTAG Adapter is a multi-functional parallel JTAG adapter for hobbyists or engineers.

In this tutorial, I am going to show you how to config it as a Xilinx Buffered Parallel Cable III to erase/read and program Xilinx CPLD.

Required Hardware

Xilinx Buffered Platform Cable III Schematic

This is the schematic of the official Xilinx Buffered Platform Cable III:

The key points of the schematic are as follows:

  • PIN 2 of DB25 is TDI
  • PIN 3 of DB25 is TCK
  • PIN 4 of DB25 is TMS
  • PIN 13 of DB25 is TDO
  • PIN 8, 11 and 12 of DB25 are shorted (connected)

Thus, we can simulate the above schematic on TIAO Universal Buffered Parallel JTAG Adapter.

Basically, make the following connections:

* Short DB25's pin 8, 11 and 12
* Use female to female jumper wire to connect D2, D3, D4, D13 to A1, A2, A3, Y8 on TIAO Universal JTAG adapter respectively.
* Use female to female jumper wire to connect Y1, Y2, Y3, A8, GND, 3.3V to CPLD's TDI, TCK, TMS, TDO, GND and Vcc respectively.

Short DB25's PIN 8, 11 and 12

In this step, you need to solder wires to make DB25's PIN 8, 11 and 12 connected.

I soldered them together with the leg of a resistor:
