DS593 (v1.5.1) August 6, 2018 www.xilinx.com PN 0011051 04 1Platform Cable USB II embedded software and firmware when used with applications such as Xilinx s Embedded Development Kit and ChipScope Pro Analyzer. Platform Cable USB II is an upgrade to and replaces Platform Cable USB. Similar to its popular predecessor, Platform Cable USB II is intended for prototyping environments only. Platform Cable USB II is backwards Compatible with Platform Cable USB and is supported by all Xilinx design tools that support Platform Cable USB. Platform Cable USB II attaches to the USB port on a desktop or laptop PC using an off-the-shelf Hi-Speed USB AB cable. The cable derives all operating power from the hub port controller no external power supply is required. Note: Sustained data transfer rates in a Hi-Speed USB environment vary according to the number of USB devices sharing the hub bandwidth. Native signaling rate (480 MHz) is not directly correlated to application throughput. Device configuration and programming operations using Platform Cable USB II are supported by Xilinx iMPACT download software using boundary-scan (IEEE 1149.1/IEEE 1532), slave-serial mode, or serial peripheral interface (SPI). The Vivado design tools support device configuration with the Platform Cable USB II using boundary-scan (IEEE 1149.1). Note: iMPACT software is bundled with the ISE design tools and WebPACK ISE software. The slave-serial mode and direct SPI are only supported in limited versions of the ISE iMPACT tool. In addition, Platform Cable USB II is optimized for use with the Xilinx Embedded Development Kit, ChipScope Pro Analyzer, and System Generator for DSP. When used with these software tools, the cable provides a connection to embedded target systems for hardware configuration, software download, and real-time debug and verification. Target clock speeds are selectable from 750 kHz to 24 MHz. Platform Cable USB II attaches to target systems using a 14-conductor ribbon cable designed for high-bandwidth data transfers. An optional adapter for attaching a flying lead set is included for backward compatibility with target systems not using a ribbon cable connector.
