PLM-Prefix Adapters
The PLM-prefix adapters plug directly into the APU or MPU. Each
adapter provides programming support for a specific device package.
Additionally, PLM-prefix adapters (except the PLMJ1213 and PLMT1064)
support functional testing of programmed Altera devices. The PLMJ1213
and PLMT1064 adapters can program the configuration devices used to
configure Excalibur, Mercury, APEX II, APEX 20K, ACEX 1K, FLEX 10K,
FLEX 8000, and FLEX 6000 devices.
PLE-Prefix Adapters
The PLE-prefix adapters plug into the PLAD3-12 compatibility adapter,
which in turn plugs into the APU or MPU. Each PLE-prefix adapter
provides programming support for a specific Classic device.
PLAD3-12 Compatibility Adapter
The PLAD3-12 compatibility adapter plugs directly into the APU or MPU.
This compatibility adapter allows PLE-prefix adapters to be used with the
APU. See Table 2 on page 3.

MasterBlaster
Download
Cable
The MasterBlaster download cable is a hardware interface to either a
standard PC or UNIX workstation RS-232 port (known as a “COM port”
on a PC and a “ttya port” on a UNIX workstation) or a USB port. It
provides configuration data to Excalibur, Mercury, APEX II, APEX
20K,
ACEX 1K, FLEX 10K, FLEX 8000, and FLEX 6000 devices and
programming data to MAX 9000, MAX 7000S, MAX 3000A, MAX 7000B,
and MAX 7000A devices.
The 25-pin female port on the MasterBlaster download cable connects to
an RS-232 port with a standard serial cable, or the MasterBlaster can
connect to a USB port. The 10-pin female plug on the MasterBlaster
download cable connects to a device on a circuit board via a 10-pin male
header. The MasterBlaster cable contains status lights that indicate the
state of the device configuration or programming. The MasterBlaster
supports the SignalTap
®
feature, which allows designers to view internal
device logic nodes with a virtual logic analyzer.

ByteBlasterMV
Parallel
Download
Cable
The ByteBlasterMV parallel download cable is a hardware interface to a
standard parallel port (also known as an LPT port). This cable channels
configuration data to Excalibur, Mercury, APEX II, APEX 20K, ACEX 1K,
FLEX 10K, FLEX 8000, and FLEX 6000 devices and programming data to
MAX 9000, MAX 7000S, MAX 7000B, MAX 7000A, and MAX 3000A
devices.
The ByteBlasterMV download cable has a 25-pin male header that
connects to the PC parallel port, and a 10-pin female plug that connects to
the circuit board. Data is downloaded from the PC’s parallel port through
the ByteBlasterMV cable to the circuit board.
To configure/program low-voltage devices (e.g., APEX 20K and
MAX 7000B devices) using a ByteBlasterMV download cable, connect the
cable’s VCC pin to a 3.3-V power supply and the device to the appropriate
power supply. Altera 1.8-V and 2.5-V devices have 3.3-V tolerant inputs,
so the download cable’s 3.3-V output will not harm these devices. The
pull-up resistors should be connected to the 3.3-V power supply.
