Altera Jam STAPL Player

Altera Jam STAPL Player is a Jam file reader software that supports STAPL Specification which stands for Standard Test and Programming Language. Released in 2004, the latest version ready for downloading is Jam STAPL Player 2.5 but uses STAPL Specification version 2.1. This player does not only read Jam files but also applies vectors that can test and program devices in a JTAG chain. This means that the software routines that are necessary are those that can access JTAG chain. Jam STAPL Player is basically a reading software that programs and tests devices that are in a JTAG chain, which are text-based Jam files. To understand how all these work, STAPL addresses issues regarding the programming of PLDs in-system, which involves file formats, algorithms of vendor specific programming, and large size of files. It consists of two components to solve such issues, which are the Jam Composer and the Jam Player. The Jam Composer writes Jam files, while the Jam Player reads those files created. This particular Jam file reader software is compatible with Windows 98, Windows 95, and Windows NT.
