If you want to know how to program your iCEBreaker here are the instructions for the open source and proprietary tools.

== Programming with open tools ==

All you need to do is to run iceprog and provide the bitstream .bin file as a parameter.

iceprog mybitstream.bin

The tool will detect your iCEBreaker erase and flash the binary file.

== Programming on windows using Dimond Programmer ==

As far as we know Dimond does not work as a programmer for the iCEBreaker. If you find out how to use it let us know in the [https://forum.icebreaker-fpga.com/ forum] or in the [https://1bitsquared.com/pages/chat Discord chat].

== Programming on windows using Radiant Programmer ==

The official Lattice tool requires a bunch of manual settings to use.

Here are two screenshots showing all the options you have to choose so that you can program your iCEBreaker.

== Troubleshooting ==

If the above instructions still result in an error similar to:

INFO - Device1 iCE40UP5K: W25Q128JV: Erase, Program, Check

Initialization ...

Verifying IDCode ...
ERROR - Function: CHECK_ID
Expected Data: h17 Actual: hFF

ERROR - Operation: failed.

ERROR - Programming Error

You might want to try switching the cable Port. Windows likes to swap them sometimes.
