Not having Xilinx Impact tool on the Rpi (or anywhere at the moment), I found a tutorial on setting up OpenOCD for jtag on the Rpi. I have installed OpenOCD on my RPi 3B+ and connected the gpio to the JTAG pins on the 7i90HD, following this tutorial:
https://movr0.com/2016/09/02/use-raspberry-pi-23-as-a-jtagswd-adapter/ The last step seems to be to make a configuration file for the target device. The EEPROMs are WInbond 25Q16JVNIQ as best I can read the chip labels. OpenOCD doesn't have anything that looks directly applicable. I also don't know where the two chips are in the jtag chain. Am I heading down a rat hole, or getting close to success? Thanks again. -- Ralph ________________________________________ From: Peter C.

In fact, I read > this in the manual: Yep, you need to have SPI firmware loaded in the 7I90HD default 7I90HD firmware is EPP, so a device with a EPP interface is needed to load the SPI configuration I would suggest loading the SPI interface into the secondary flash leaving the primary as EPP for a fallback That is, power the 7I90 with the flash jumper in the "P" position them move the jumper to "S" before loadin the SPI firmware > > "Linux and Windows utility programs mesaflash and mesaflash.exe are provided > to > write configuration files to the 7I90HD EEPROM via the RS-422 interface and > LBP16.

Well there are 2 SPI interfaces, the HM2 compatible host interface (which needs specific SPI firmware) and the SPI Flash memory interface (which is in HM2 memory space and allows access to the SPI flash chip) > > I can tack on a pullup to SDO.
