Xilinx Lpt Cable Tutorial
« on: November 09, 2011, 11:26:00 AM »
Hi, I am trying to figure out this schematic, it's been a few years since I had to read one.
(IMG:http://www.360parts.co.uk/bmz_cache/d/d2e06993257399f8ea8bfac198aa430f.image.750x539.png)

I just wanted to confirm am I planning this right?

D1, D2, D3 connects to the glitch chip and also the corresponding resistors.

The resistors are then connected together.

Pin 18 is then connected to the joined resistors.
Pin 18 and the joined resistors are then connected to GND on the chip

Pin 8, 11 and 12 are connected

Pin 13 is connected to R4. R4 is connected to TDO and also R5. R5 is then connected to VCC.

Here is what mine looks like...

Unfortunately i cant seem to program my matrix chip tho... using 360glitchip programmer v1.1 instead of iMPACT... I think it could be that my 3.3k gold strips are not facing the correct way, but not sure...

Will not matter, resistors are not polarity sensitive unlike diodes.

I want to know about whether this will work for the new coolrunner, too.

I had that issue.  I removed the diodes and resistors except the 3.3k and it worked.  You can try that.  I have that diagram on my guide on my site.  I did it as a last resort.  my LPT port doesnt like it when I add that stuff on my cables for some reason

Guess thats worth a shot, I just keep the 3,3ks' in the same position but remove the 220 and diodes?

its coz these diagrams assume your lpt port is 5v but some lpt port is 3.3v. u only need R5 3.3k in that case
