#16 MCS file programming error with xc3sprog

[Nagore Pinillos]

Hello, can somebody help me with the good procedure to program a .MCS file( generated with promgen.exe) in an SPARTAN 3? I am trying every command I can imagine, but I can't manage. I attach some pictures to show all the tries. Any hint will help me since I am stuck. As you can see, I am advancing from error to error :(

Thanks a lot in advance,

Nagore

Hello,

please have a look at openFpgaLoader
github.com:trabucayre/openFPGALoader.git
It seem to implement MCS parsing and is mantained. I also use
openFPGALoader instead of xc3sprog now.

Cheers

Thanks a lot for your suggestions Uwe. Have read about this software and gonna give it an opportunity. But after installing everything, I am afraid that it does not support xc3s700, do you know smt about this?

Thanks in advance

For SRAM programming, try to simply add the JTAG IDs from xc3sprog to
openFpgaloader src/part.hpp. For flash programming, add your part in
spiOverJtag/build.py and probably more places and build the needed
bitfiles. If you struggle, let me and perhpas Gwenhael know.
