The USB-ML-CFE (USB ColdFire Multilink) has been discontinued. The recommended replacement part is the all-in-one Multilink Universal. Most software products will support the Multilink Universal transparently. Older software may need to be patched so that it will natively work with the latest Cyclones and Universal Multilinks. See FAQ #211.
For users who would prefer a high-speed solution, the Multilink Universal FX is also compatible, but please note that older software will need an upgrade to use the Multilink Universal FX.
Other compatible interfaces include the Cyclone Universal, Cyclone Universal FX, and Tracelink. <
