2mm connectors are not Xilinx compliant

I can't use the programmer right away. My board has the standard 14-pin 2mm pitch connector that Xilinx uses, but the programming cables use the simpler 14-pin 2mm pitch IDC connectors on cables that require a significantly wider socket. None of the other options in the kit will work, not even flying leads designed for 25mm square pins with .100" centers. i need other parts

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Upgrades available

Works for Carby Firmware Update

I used this mainly to update the firmware for my Carby (GameCube A/V Adapter). However, when I got this programmer, I found that I needed additional cables to make this work, so I ordered these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GJJRH3MA After that, I installed Xilinx Platform Studio on my Windows Computer 10 and was able to successfully flash the latest firmware. This was my first time doing something like this and I didn't even know what JTAG was before, but it was pretty easy once I had…

  • Always Liked
Cons
  • Upgradable

Works well, looks just as good as Xilinx Official Programmer

I use it to program XC95144XL CPLD chips. Works perfectly, no problems at all. I'm using it with ISE 14.7 running in a Linux virtual machine on macOS, it's recognized by the software with no problems.

Pros
  • Quick Change
Cons
  • Not sure

2mm connectors do not conform to Xilinx standard

Programmer cannot be used out of the box. My board has the standard 14-pin 2mm pitch connector that Xilinx uses, but the programming cables use the simpler 14-pin 2mm pitch IDC connectors on cables that require a significantly wider socket. None of the other options in the kit will work, not even flying leads designed for 25mm square pins with .100" centers. i need other parts

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Updating the Carby firmware works, but there's a catch.

I bought this after someone said it would work to update the Carby firmware but the catch is you really need a system running Windows 7 or XP as it doesn't worked with my windows 10 laptop and it took over 30 seconds and kept failing when using impact from the 14.7 ISE software. I was lucky enough to find an old laptop that still had XP on it and after downloading the software and setting up the cable in Impact with the latest GCVideo firmware it was successfully programmed within 30 seconds…

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Short manual
