prolice 0.2.4

Command line interface for flashing iCE40HX1K-EVB

Description

This tool can be used for uploading generated bit-stream to ether iCE40HX1K-EVB or iCE40HX8K-EVB.

Supported tools are:

• ARM-USB-OCD-H
• ARM-USB-TINY-H

Hardware connection

Connect the flashing tool with the target board as shown:

Name	JTAG	UEXT	Description
VCC	1	1	Power supply (see Note)
GND	4	2	Ground
CDONE	11	5	iCE40 status indication
CRESET	3	6	iCE40 reset signal
MISO	13	7	Serial data from the board to the PC
MOSI	5	8	Serial data from the PC to the board
SCK	9	9	Serial clock
CS	7	10	Chip select

Note : In order to work properly ARM-USB-OCD-H must have target voltage feedback. One simple way is to solder 3.3V_E1 jumper, found on the bottom of the board. If you're getting the voltage from somewhere else make sure it's 3.3V!

Installation

The recommended way is:

pip3 install prolice

If you chose building from sources:

git clone https://gitlab.com/stefan.mavrodiev/prolice.git
cd prolice
python3 setup.py install

Usage

Assuming you have bit-stream file called hardware.bin:

prolice /path/to/file/hardware.bin
