Access to System MAX design for Agilex 5 kit

For the Agilex 7 I-Series Transceiver-SoC Development Kit (DK-SI-AGI027Fx), the design source for the on-board System MAX10 device is included in the installer package, under examples. For the Agilex...

    Hi cblixt1 

     

    After further checking internally, unfortunately, System MAX10 design will be not available as part of the installer package for this development kit.

    I am referring to the engineering sample version, the only one available for ordering as of yet: Agilex™ 5 FPGA and SoC E-Series Premium Development Kit (ES)

    I'm assuming there will be an installer package for the -A version when it is ready. Will that include the System MAX design?

        Aqid,

        Thank you for looking into this. That's a disappointment, although recreating the design would probably be possible it would be very tedious. Any other suggestion on how to get access to temperature readings from the on-board temperature sensors?

      I really apologize for the inconvenience.

      You can use the BTS GUI for temperature monitoring.

      Refer here: https://docs.altera.com/r/docs/814550/current/agilextm-5-fpga-e-series-065b-premium-development-kit-user-guide/temperature-monitor

        Thank you. Yes, I know I can do that. But what if I want to make temperature readings available to the main FPGA on the board, using existing connections? I've already successfully done that on the Agilex 7 kit, but it requires access to the system MAX project or a full rewrite of that. The latter seems like a waste of time.

        I realize there is nothing to do about this, so I will mark this as solved, but I fail to see the logic in providing this design for one kit but not for another.
