# Programming over USB port "US2"

There is possibility to program ULX3S SPI config flash thru
|
|
|
|
|
US2 connector and
|
|
|
|
|
a [fork of tinyfpga bootloader](https://github.com/tinyfpga/TinyFPGA-Bootloader) loaded
|
|
|
|
|
to FPGA, either loaded from US1 temporary to FPGA SRAM or permanently
|
|
|
|
|
to SPI config flash. Bootloader uses multiboot feature of ECP5 FPGA.
|
|
|
|
|
This programming option is experimental and not recommended for
|
|
|
|
|
regular use.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ULX3S with fully functional US2 bootloader can be used without
|
|
|
|
|
USB-serial to JTAG chip FT231X.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For bootloader convenience, it is recommented to solder D28 diode
|
|
|
|
|
at empty placeholder located on back side near OLED and JTAG header.
|
|
|
|
|
Observe diode polarity, see how other similar diodes are soldered on ULX3S.
|
|
|
|
|
Any general purpose or schottky diode in SOD-323 package will fit
|
|
|
|
|
like 1N914 1N4148 BAT54W etc. This diode will convert BTN0 function
|
|
|
|
|
to unconditionally switch to next multiboot image by pulling down
|
|
|
|
|
FPGA PROGRAMN pin.

USB bootloader is in hacky state of development, you need hi quality
|
|
|
|
|
USB cable, a compatible PC and selected USB port and too much luck (try
|
|
|
|
|
all). I think bootloader's USB bus error recovery handling is wrong
|
|
|
|
|
but sometimes it just works.
|
|
|
|
|
US2 port should enumerate as some vendor specific USB-HID USB device
|
|
|
|
|
and "tiyfpgasp" application can be used to write or read arbitrary
|
|
|
|
|
image to FPGA SPI config FLASH.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
User bitstream should be uploaded to byte address 0x200000 of SPI config
|
|
|
|
|
FLASH. Bootloader itself resites at a0 address 0. Try not to overwrite
|
|
|
|
|
it with something else otherwise US1 or JTAG recovery will be required.
