As I alluded to in a previous post, I’ve come up with a way to program my Altera Cyclone II FPGA with a $15 FT232RL USB to UART Bridge, avoiding the $300 investment in one of Altera’s USB-Blaster cables. I’m going to break this tutorial up into three separate posts. The first has already been [ READ MORE ]

Now that I’ve upgraded my computer, I no longer have a Parallel port which renders my Altera FPGA Compatible Programmer obsolete. Instead of buying a $300 USB-Blaster from Altera, I’m developing a much cheaper solution… In my next post I’m going to show a technique I’ve come up with to configure the Cyclone II FPGA [ READ MORE ]
