RE: [microblaze-uclinux] Has anyone used the USB version of a PC IV interface

["Roger W. Cover" <rcover@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Greetings,

I have been using the Platform Cable USB for all my Xilinx development for
some time. I have experienced no issues, only improved speed compared to the
Parallel Cable IV I had previously. I am not using Linux to program the
Xilinx devices.

I have used the embedded version of Platform Cable USB on the XUP
board. It is certainly much faster than Parallel Cable IV without ECP and
should still be faster with ECP. I am experiencing one driver issue
however. After powering on the board I have to disconnect and reconnect
the USB cable in order for the device to cycle properly. Not sure if this
issue is specific to the XUP board or to Debian.
