17 years agoYes I am using the Cyclone II starter kit.
The flash was 'burned' using their example control panel file that comes with the board. I used this to upload my raw data from my binary dump files, there are 3 images, one from $A000-$BFFF, one from $D000-$DFFF and one from $E000-$FFFF. I have checked the flash data both with the example control panel application and with a simple verilog program I wrote that simply set flash address to $F000 and incremented it every two clock cycles (27mhz clock). I checked the data that I got back from polling the flash data pins using signal tap II. On the cyclone II development board there does not appear to be a pin out for the flash CE signal. The reference documents give no pin number for its connection. Also their example starter file, while it does declare a FLASH_CE signal in the verilog header, has no matching pin assignment in the assignment file. I have not looked at the schematics but am guessing that this is held low all the time. I certainly would be interested if there is indeed a connection for this pin. Simon :)
