16 years agoYou have to program the EPCS device indirectly through the FPGA. There are two methods for doing this:
1 - Use the Quartus II programmer and create a JIC file. Then program the EPCS using the JIC file. What this will do is download a temporary image into the FPGA with enough intelligence to then program the EPCS. 2 - Include the EPCS controller core in your SoPC system. Then with your FPGA image programmed into the FPGA, you can program the EPCS device with the nios2-flash-programmer. Jake
