Programming the PLDs
The three-pin header with reference designator J6 is used to select between the JTAG port of the MachXO2 or
POWR1014A device. Installing a jumper in pins 1 and 2 of J6 will select the JTAG port of the POWR1014A device.
Installing a jumper in pins 2 and 3 of J6 will select the JTAG port of the MachXO2 device.
Pin 1 of header J6 is marked on the silkscreen of the board with a white triangle as shown in Figure 4. This exam-
ple shows the jumper installed in pins 2 and 3 of the J6 header and the JTAG port of the MachXO2 device has been
selected.
