EBAZ4205 Bitcoin miner board - xvc-pico

SVC is "Xilinx Virtual Cable". You can buy a product from Xilinx, or you can do as I did and grab a Pi Pico and put the xvc-pico firmware on it.

Vivado and xvc-pico

I have used the JTAG on the EBAZ board to inject FPGA images. To do this I use a homebrew USB to JTAG "dongle" made from a Pi Pico board. The board itself costs $4, so it is almost certainly the cheapest option available.

My pico runs "xvc-pico" where XVC is "Xilinx Virtual Cable".
