For the I9 board from AliExpress, which board do I need to choose in IceStudio?

Hello, none of these three are correct. In fact, the downloader is based on DAPLink, For details, please check the README in this repo.

Thanks for the answer, but I don't understand.

  1. What board do I need to select in IceStudio for "I9 and Ext Board" ?

  2. Can you give me a link of the documentation of the I9/Ext DAPLink and how to use it?

Thanks. I think I understand it now. Your boards require an external FTDI adapter to be compatible with apio or IceStudio. They explain it here https://github.com/benitoss/ColorLight_FPGA_boards and say that using FTDI speeds up the transfer significantly.
