Program EPC1 with usb blaster and pof file

[Altera_Forum]

Hi, 

 i want to burn an old epc1pi8 device  this is what i got: an old pof file for epc1 device screen: i.imgur*com/uCZcGUH.png usb blaster some skills and some components to build up some hardware.  is this possible? what do i need? how does the required cuircit look like?  thx in advance

Hi, 

easiest way is to look in the datasheet for the enhanced configuration devices. These are programmed via JTAG I/F, thus the circuit would be  "power, JTAG I/F to Header and usb-Blaster to program"

Well, sorry, I missed the point (and my designs with the EPC1 are a long time ago)... 

The EPC1 was the last EEPROM which cannot be programmed in-ciruit, i.e. you need to have programmer hardware (as for "standard" ROM) - there is no way to do this with the USB-Blaster itself.. In Ciruit programming started with the EPC2...  Sorry for confusing   From the EPC1 Datasheet: "Programming support with Altera’s Master Programming Unit (MPU) and programming hardware from Data I/O, BP Microsystems, and other manufacturers"
