4.4.1. Configuring the FPGA over Embedded Intel® FPGA Download Cable II

Embedded Intel® FPGA Download Cable II is the default method for configuring the Intel® Stratix® 10 TX FPGA using the Intel® Quartus® Prime Programmer in the JTAG mode with the supplied USB cable.

The embedded Intel® FPGA Download Cable II for USB-based configuration of the Intel® Stratix® 10 TX FPGA device is implemented using a Type-B USB connector, a CY7C68013A USB2 PHY device, and an Intel® MAX® 10 10M04SCU169 FPGA. This will allow configuration of the Intel® Stratix® 10 TX FPGA device using a USB cable directly connected to a computer running Intel® Quartus® Prime software without requiring the external Intel® FPGA Download Cable dongle.

This design will convert USB data to interface with the Intel® Stratix® 10 TX FPGA's dedicated JTAG port. Four LEDs are provided to indicate embedded Intel® FPGA Download Cable II activity. The embedded Intel® FPGA Download Cable II is automatically disabled when an external Intel® FPGA Download Cable dongle is connected to the JTAG header.
