Hello,

what i need for programming,reading etc a XILINX XC2018 44PLCC ?What
is the good tool?
I need a toll for repairing old boards that have the XC2018 on board,


Thanks

You need a VERY OLD xilinx tools from the 90s. Xilinx M1 probably works. None of the new ISE versions support 2000 series, some older ones (4.2 and older) supporter 4000 series, but nothing as old as xc2018.

In addition to what others have suggested you might also be able to use a PLCC
adaptor and use that to piggyback a modern FPGA. Companies like Enterpoint and
OHO Electronik might be able to make one of these modules for you.

If you are -repairing- boards, you do not need a programmer or
reader. What you need is a supply of parts (and good luck with that).

If you are -modifying- boards, your best bet (ref HT-LAB) is to
replace the 2018 with something that you can actually use. It could
probably be replaced with a modern CPLD.
