Xilinx_FPGA_Downloader

Overview

In this repo you may find the xilinx USB downloader based on FT232/FT2232/FT4232 three chip design schemes, and firmware programming!

Include

• Design Schematic
• PCB and Gerber files
• Firmware programming

FT232/FT2232/FT4232 difference

• FT232 no serial port
• FT2232 has a serial port
• FT4232 has three serial ports

Firmware program step

• Open Xilinx Software Command Line Tool 2022.2
• Enter the following command(just test)
