Parallella Community

What is required from a hardware perspective to program the Zynq on the parallella board using JTAG?

Does the parallella have a way of connecting a JTAG interface, or does the USB connection have an inbuilt JTAG blaster that just requires a driver?

Right. So that means I would need the porcupine and appropriate adapter and cables to program it?

That would be a bit of a shame. I'm used to dealing with FPGA development boards like the DE-115 where you can just plug in a USB cable and boot a JTAG stream or reprogram the flash directly.

I was looking at an easy way to make use of the Xilinx native tools to connect to the FPGA and quickly develop and test code from the IDE.

Thanks for the confirmation and links Andrew.
