Hi,

I have a question regarding the Advanced Debug System:
Can the adv_jtag_bridge be used with Altera's USB Blaster II?
Is somebody using this combination with success?

Thanks for any help.

I'm using a USB Blaster cable with adv_debug_sys. Not sure if it's version 1 or 2, but I think both should work. On the PC side we normally use OpenOCD to connect to adv_debug_sys through the cable.

If you're connecting to an OpenRISC SoC there is some additional information here https://github.com/openrisc/tutorials/blob/master/docs/Debugging.md and some details for the Altera-based de0 nano board here https://github.com/openrisc/tutorials/tree/master/de0_nano

Hope this helps,
Olof

Thanks, it works as you said with OpenOCD on the PC side. I've got it running with a DE0-SOC board, which includes a USB Blaster II (onboard).
