JTAG Programmer - '<design_name>(Device1)': Programming terminated due to errors.
Record #8427
Problem Title:
JTAG Programmer - '<design_name>(Device1)': Programming terminated due to errors.
Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard
General Description:
When using JTAG programmer to download a bit file onto a Virtex device. You might encounter the fol
lowing error message.
"<design_name>(Device1)': Reading bit-stream file...done.
'<design_name>(Device1)': Programming device...done.
'<design_name>(Device1)': Programming terminated due to errors.
Solution 1:
After the JTAG Programmer finishes configuration (designated by the
done pin going high), it performs a read on the status register.
This is a redundant check to see if done is high or not. If the bitgen option
"disable Readback" is selected, the part is prevented from relaying this
information to the software. Thus the following error after configuration can occur:
<design_name>(Device1)': Programming terminated due to errors.
This error can be ignored because it is a redundant check by software.
Physically probing the DONE pin, will show that the part was successfully configured.
This error message has been seen targeting Virtex.
