Hi,

one remark about the schematics behind the 'Digilent style JTAG':

Digilent makes a big fuzz about the logic used to connect the FT2232
to the JTAG pins, the schematics of all Digilent boards feature an
'intentionally left blank' page for this part of the schematics.

The vendor Trenz manufactures very nice FPGA boards and accessories.
They offer for example

  TE0790 "Xilinx compatible JTAG adapter"

even as 'open hardware', you find the schematics under

  
https://shop.trenz-electronic.de/en/TE0790-02-XMOD-FTDI-JTAG-Adapter-Xilinx-compatible
  and 'Downloads'.

That leaves open what the Lattice CPLD is doing. Trenz offers a nice carrier
board, which also features a integrated 'Xilinx compatible JTAG adapter' as

  TE0703  "Carrier Board for ...."
  
https://shop.trenz-electronic.de/en/TE0703-05-TE0703-Carrier-board-for-Trenz-Electronic-modules-with-4-x-5-cm-form-factor

and under 'Download' you'll find again schematics and in file
  SC-PGM-TE703-05_CCSpecial4x5-01_20150121.zip
the sources of the CPLD.

Taken it all together that documents nicely what Digilent doesn't show.
And this is about as simple and trivial as it can be, so it remains
unclear to me they they don't include it in their schematics.

The only unknown is the content of the configuration EEPROM for the FT2232.


         With best regards,     Walter
