JAM Byte Code Player for Embedded Systems

This repository provides tools for programming Altera CPLDs and FPGAs using the JAM Byte Code Player. It includes the following components:

Components

1. Original JAM Byte Code Player v2.3.2
   The latest unmodified version of the JAM Byte Code Player, as provided by Intel. It supports programming Altera devices via JTAG using JBC (.jbc) files.

2. Ported and Slimmed-Down Version
   A lightweight version of the JAM Byte Code Player, tailored for embedded systems. This version is designed to function as a library for microcontrollers such as STM32 or similar MCUs, enabling programming of Altera CPLDs and FPGAs in resource-constrained environments.

Key Features

• JTAG Programming: Supports programming Altera devices using JBC (.jbc) files.
• Embedded System Optimization: Designed for use in embedded systems with limited resources.
• Customizable Library: The slimmed-down version can be easily integrated into various embedded platforms.
• In-Application Programming (IAP): Enables dynamic loading and execution of JBC files for in-application programming.

Use Cases

This repository is ideal for developers working on embedded systems who require a reliable and efficient solution for programming Altera devices. It is particularly suited for applications where:

• Resource constraints demand a lightweight programming library.
• In-application programming (IAP) is needed for dynamic firmware updates.
