ESP32 JTAG

USB and WiFi JTAG "cable" for FPGA

USB: Simulate a FT2232H Device

WiFi: Act as an XVC server

JTAG: HW SPI master and SPI slave in byte mode shifting, GPIO in bit mode shifting

Feature

• High speed shifting, with WiFi speeds up to 5M
• Clock adaptable

Test

HW: ESP32S2 <=> SN74AVC4T774 <=> XC7K480T

• Vivado
  • XVC: ✅. Speeds up to 5M
  • USB: ❌. Will be ported to ch32v30x
• Gowin (todo)

Sofware Development Environment

ESP-IDF in VSCode

Hardware

ESP32

Any ESP32 with SPI master and slave controller. The SPI clock is connected through the internal mux.

JTAG Wiring

⚠️Level shifting is required. IC: SN74AVC4T774, etc.
