Compatible with Quartus development tools, it supports multiple voltage levels and includes essential cables for immediate use. With advanced features like embedded logic analysis and rapid programming speeds, this device is a must-have for engineers looking to enhance their projects. ## Description Usb ISP programmer for programming Altera's range of FPGA and CPLD device. This programmer is also idealy suited for our own Altera development boards such as item HCDVBD0006. This programmer is compatible with Altera's Quartus development tools (Use USB blaster in programmer hardware settings). Items include: 1 X device 1 X USB cable 1 X 10pin JTAGE cable Supports 1.5V,1.8V,2.5V,3.5V and 5.0V. Support all ALTERA products : CPLD ( MAX3000, MAX7000, MAX9000 and MAX II ) ; FPGA ( Stratix, StratixII, Cyclone, CycloneII, ACEX 1K, APEX20K and FLEX 10K ) ;Active serial configuration device (EPCS1, EPCS4, EPCS16) Supports AS, PS and JTAG program ( with Verify and BankCheck function). Supports embedded logic analyser function of SignalTapII Supports NIOS II communication and debugger -- When you use it to debug your Black Gold , it will not Pop-up a warning Faster -- about 6 times than ByteblasterII USB interface 100% compatible with Official ALTERA USB Blaster Software download available on our support forum Review: Works in Quartus Programmer - I've used this to program MAX II CPLDs made by Intel. Using the Quartus programmer tool, it works fine. Maybe a bit slower than the £300 alternative but I'm happy with it. Review: Works just as well as the official £200 usb blaster. - I've used these on a variety of altera devices and flash. It even worked in JTAG mode when I was debugging a design with signal tap. ## Features - Usb ISP programmer for programming Altera's range of FPGA and CPLD device.

I would like to confirm that this device is suitable for a Cyclone III Active Serial programming.** A: Yes it works well but is not as fast as the Altera part - it is, however, very good value for money ! **Q: Hello. i would like to confirm that this device is suitable for 5m40zm64c5n (a cyclone v cpld chip) jtag programming.** A: If the original usb blaster supports it, this should as seems 100% compatible. **Q: Does this device work with icestorm?** A: I doubt it. Icestorm is for Lattice devices. Byteblaster works with Altera devices and proprietary tools (Quartus). ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works in Quartus Programmer *by J***N on 2 November 2022* I've used this to program MAX II CPLDs made by Intel. Using the Quartus programmer tool, it works fine. Maybe a bit slower than the £300 alternative but I'm happy with it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works just as well as the official £200 usb blaster. *by M***R on 18 August 2019* I've used these on a variety of altera devices and flash.
