It features a versatile voltage reference, USB2 connectivity, and compliance with industry standards, making it an essential tool for engineers seeking efficiency and reliability in their programming tasks. ## Description The joint test action group (JTAG) HS2 programming cable is a high-speed programming solution for Xilinx field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). The cable is fully compatible will all Xilinx tools and can be seamlessly driven from iMPACTTM, ChipScopeTM, and EDK. The HS2 attaches to target boards using Digilent's 6-pin, 100-mil spaced programming header or Xilinx's 2x7, 2mm connector and the included adaptor. The PC powers the JTAG-HS2 through the USB port and will recognize it as a Digilent programming cable when connected to a PC, even if the cable is not attached to the target board. The HS2 has a separate Vdd pin to supply the JTAG signal buffers. The high-speed 24mA three-state buffers allow target boards to drive the HS2 with signal voltages from 1.8V to 5V and bus speeds of up to 30MBit/sec. To function correctly, the HS2's Vdd pin must be tied to the same voltage supply that drives the JTAG port on the FPGA. The JTAG bus can be shared with other devices as systems hold JTAG signals at high-impedance except when actively driven during programming. The HS2 comes included with a standard Type-A to Micro-USB cable that attaches to the end of the module opposite the system board connector. The system board connector should hold the small and light HS2 firmly in place. Note: This cable is not needed for Digilent FPGA boards as our boards are designed with this functionality natively. Review: Great JTAG for Xilinx FPGAs - I have used these in lieu of the Xilinx Platform Cable USB II and have had no problems with Vivado using Artix7 or Zynq FPGAs, including Opal Kelly boards for the Artix7. The included adapter is nice, since most non-diligent development boards will only come with the "standard" 2.0mm Xilinx debug header. It is far cheaper and smaller than the Xilinx cable while offering the same performance for the vast majority of applications, and I really like that it uses any provided micro-usb cable. Review: Works fine, good value - Works fine, and is cheaper than the Xilinx part. I did have some problems with it in Linux, but I'm not sure whether that's a hardware or software problem. In any case, the Digilent cable is great. ## Features - Small, complete, all-in-one JTAG programming solution for Xilinx FPGAs - Compatible with all Xilinx tools - Separate Vref drives JTAG/SPI signal voltages; Vref can be any voltage between 1.8V and 5V. - High-Speed USB2 port that can drive JTAG/SPI bus at up to 30Mbit/sec - Compatible with IEEE 1149.7-2009 Class T0 - Class T4 (includes 2-Wire JTAG) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B009R3TVRY | | Brand | Digilent | | Cable Type | USB | | Cable type | USB | | Compatible Devices | Personal Computer | | Compatible Phone Models | No Compatible Phone Models | | Compatible devices | Personal Computer | | Compatible phone models | No Compatible Phone Models | | Connector Gender | Male-to-... | | Connector Type | Micro USB | | Connector type | Micro USB | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 14 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 30 Megabits Per Second | | Frequency | 30 MHz | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Item Shape | Round | | Item Weight | 0.05 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Digilent | | Manufacturer Part Number | 410-249 | | Maximum Current | 24 Milliamps | | Maximum Voltage | 5 Volts | | Model Name | JTAG HS2 | | Model Number | BC82103 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pins | 6 | | Other Special Features of the Product | High Speed | | Recommended Uses For Product | Programming and debugging Xilinx FPGAs | | Special feature | High Speed | | Specification Met | IEEE | | UPC | 700112246265 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Digilent - **Connector type:** Micro USB - **Cable type:** USB - **Compatible devices:** Personal Computer - **Special feature:** High Speed ## Images ![JTAG-HS2 Programming Cable - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31+FtWGBhwL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great JTAG for Xilinx FPGAs *by D***D on 23 May 2016* I have used these in lieu of the Xilinx Platform Cable USB II and have had no problems with Vivado using Artix7 or Zynq FPGAs, including Opal Kelly boards for the Artix7.

I did have some problems with it in Linux, but I'm not sure whether that's a hardware or software problem. In any case, the Digilent cable is great. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Xilinx Jtag programmer *by E***I on 11 February 2014* Works as advertised both with Xilinx impact, chipscope and our custom drivers using digilents API. Note their API software worked with 14.4 and RHEL 6.3 but we had some lib conflicts with 14.6. ## Frequently Bought Together - Digilent JTAG-HS2 Programming Cable - Digilent Basys 3 Artix-7 FPGA Trainer Board: Recommended for Introductory Users - Digilent JTAG-HS3 Programming Cable --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://monaco.desertcart.com/products/514101791-jtag-hs2-programming-cable](https://monaco.desertcart.com/products/514101791-jtag-hs2-programming-cable) --- *Product available on Desertcart Monaco* *Store origin: MC* *Last updated: 2026-09-16*
