    Hi,

    I have checked the Generic Serial Flash Interface Intel® FPGA IP User Guide.

    The supported flash devices for configuration memory are, EPCQ, EPCQ-A, EPCQ-L, and

    Micron* MT25Q (256Mb to 2Gb) devices. Unfortunately N25Q512A83 is not supported for booting NIOSV with MAX10 device.


    Hope this clear your doubts.


    Thank you.


    Regards,

    Kelly

    Hello,

    The list supported flash types is for Generic Quad SPI Controller IP, but I am using Generic Serial Flash Controller IP. Does is make any difference.

    Also please refer the below image from Generic Quad SPI Controller IP

    It tells that if we use Generic Quad SPI Controller IP, then NIOSV will not boot. So does it apply for Generic Serial Flash Controller IP too ?

    Please share your response.

    Regards,
