Configuring Cyclone IV Devices with the JRunner Software Driver
The JRunner software driver allows you to configure Cyclone IV devices through the
ByteBlaster II or ByteBlasterMV cables in JTAG mode. The supported programming
input file is in .rbf format. The JRunner software driver also requires a Chain
Description File (.cdf) generated by the Quartus II software. The JRunner software
driver is targeted for embedded JTAG configuration. The source code is developed for
the Windows NT operating system (OS). You can customize the code to make it run
on your embedded platform.
The .rbf used by the JRunner software driver cannot be a compressed .rbf because the
JRunner software driver uses JTAG-based configuration. During JTAG-based
configuration, the real-time decompression feature is not available.
For more information about the JRunner software driver, refer to
Software Driver: An Embedded Solution for PLD JTAG Configuration
on the Altera website at (www.altera.com).
Combining JTAG and AS Configuration Schemes
You can combine the AS configuration scheme with the JTAG-based configuration
(Figure
download cable is used in JTAG mode to configure the Cyclone IV device directly
through the JTAG interface. The other download cable is used in AS mode to program
the serial configuration device in-system through the AS programming interface. If
you try configuring the device using both schemes simultaneously, JTAG
configuration takes precedence and AS configuration terminates.
