FS2009 -  JTAG ISP Upgrade for Atmel ATmega AVR Microcontrollers

 
 
 

The 'AVR JTAG' License Upgrade for Equinox ISP Programmers supports high-speed  In-System Programming (ISP) of Atmel AVR Microcontrollers via their on-chip JTAG port. The JTAG algorithm yields much faster programming times (3 - 4 times faster) than the traditional SPI algorithm due to an enhanced protocol and higher bus speed. It is also possible to program multiple AVR microcontrollers which are part of a JTAG Chain on the same Target System using the JTAG algorithm.

The JTAG port can be used for firmware development (repetitive programming and debugging) by connecting an Atmel JTAG ICE MK2 debugger. The same JTAG port can then be used for production ISP programming using an Equinox high-speed JTAG ISP programmer. JTAG ISP support is available for the Epsilon5, FS2003, FS2009, PPM3-MK2, PPM4-MK1 and ISPnano ISP Programmers as a chargeable ‘License Upgrade’.

 
Supports In System Programming (ISP) via the JTAG port of the target microcontroller.
 
 

Features

 
 
Main Features
  • Supports high-speed JTAG programming of a single Atmel AVR microcontroller connected via the JTAG interface
  • Supports high-speed JTAG programming of  multiple Atmel AVR microcontrollers which are connected as part of a 'JTAG Chain' (JTAG daisy-chain mode).
  • Fast programming speeds via JTAG (3 - 4 times faster than SPI method)
  • Simple 4-wire JTAG Interface to microcontroller
  • Same JTAG Interface as Atmel JTAG ICE MK2 Debugger
  • User-selectable JTAG frequency
  • Supports JTAG Chain Validation
  • Supports checking of the 'JTAG ID' of both AVR and any generic JTAG devices eg. CPLD's
  • Supports automatic checking of 'Silicon Revision' of target JTAG device

Advantages of JTAG Programming
  • The JTAG algorithm is approximately 3-4 times faster at programming compared to the SPI algorithm.
  • The programming time using JTAG for the EEPROM is significantly faster than the SPI algorithm
  • The JTAG algorithm uses the same ‘JTAG Port’ as the Atmel JTAG-ICE Debugger.
  • In JTAG mode is it possible to change the ‘Clock Selection Fuses’ to any value and still program the chip. (with the exception of the ‘JTAGEN’ Fuse)
  • It is possible to daisy-chain multiple JTAG devices on the JTAG bus in a so-called ‘JTAG Chain’ and then select to program a particular device in the chain. This functionality is now supported by Equinox programmers running firmware 3.07 and above.

JTAG connections (Single JTAG Device)

  • Supports high-speed JTAG programming of a single Atmel AVR microcontroller
  • Uses only 4 x JTAG pins + control of the AVR RESET pin
  • Uses the same JTAG port pins as used by the Atmel JTAG ICE debugger

JTAG Chain Programming Support

  • Supports programming of Atmel AVR microcontrollers which are part of a 'JTAG Chain'
  • An individual 'Programming Project' is used to program a specific 'JTAG Device' in the 'JTAG Chain'
  • The algorithm supports 'JTAG Chain' programming of both legacy AVR devices eg. ATmega16 and newer AVR devices eg. ATmega2560 with the devices placed in any order in the JTAG Chain
  • High-speed  'JTAG Chain' programming possible due to optimised algorithms  
  • Supports JTAG Chain validation (checks the integrity of the JTAG Chain)
  • Supports checking of the 'JTAG ID' of any other non-AVR JTAG device eg. CPLD in the chain

ISP Header Pin-out

  • Equinox programmers feature the same 10-way IDC connector as the Atmel JTAG ICE debugger
  • The same JTAG interface can therefore be used for both debugging during the "development phase" and "In-System Programming" during the "production phase"
