Good day. 

 

 

I am have an embedded system consisting from ARM processor and CYCLONE device. I am aimed at creating a remote firmware upgrade system. 

 

As far as i have understand, there are 2 aspects of remote programming: fpga programming and configuration device programming. In order to reduce physical footprint of configuration system, i would like to use jtag chain for both: direct fpga programming and indirect configuration device programming via altera IP core. 

 

So i need a code on the arm side, that would "play" programming file via jtag chain. While searching for information on the subject, I came across the jam player, which looks like a solution for my problem. Unfortunately, references to jam player are rather old and links to jam player source code on altera site are outdated (404). 

 

I would like to ask if the source code for jam player is still available.

Hello, 

the following web page can be useful for you: 

https://www.altera.com/support/support-resources/download/programming/jam.html 

 

as well as the document about porting Jam STAPL player: 

AN 586: Porting the Jam STAPL and Jam STAPL Byte-Code Players to an Embedded System 

https://www.altera.com/content/dam/altera-www/global/en_us/pdfs/literature/an/an586.pdf 

 

or one can try to put the words JAM and STAPL into Altera web search. 

 

Best regards, 

Martin
