Figure 18.  Intel® FPGA Download Cable II Block Diagram

The embedded Intel® FPGA Download Cable II core for USB-based configuration of the Intel Agilex® 7 FPGA is implemented using a TYPE B USB connector, a CY7C68013A USB2 PHY device, and a Intel® MAX® 10 device. This allows for the configuration of the Intel Agilex® 7 FPGA using a USB cable directly connected to a PC running Intel® Quartus® Prime software without requiring the external Intel® FPGA Download Cable II dongle.

This design converts USB data to interface with the Intel Agilex® 7’s dedicated JTAG port. Four LEDs are provided to indicate Intel® FPGA Download Cable II activity. Two of them monitor the JTAG data-in and data-out signals; the remaining two monitor System Console activity. The embedded Intel® FPGA Download Cable is automatically disabled when an external Intel® FPGA Download Cable II dongle is connected to the JTAG chain.
