DSP56F800 - USB interface JTAG programmers

[Devendra]

We are currently using Parallel port (25-pin) to JTAG (10-pin) interface for programming DSP56F800 and MC56F8300 series controllers.

I would like to know if there is any USB interfaced JTAG programmer, because modern day Laptops don't have a parallel port.

Any converter for USB to Parallel port should work for this? There are some converters available which emulate a parallel port through a coverter hardware and some device driver installed in the PC.

Please reply ASAP.

Thanks and Best Regards,

Devendra
