8 years agoHi Bachimanchi,
Your post is very helpful. I have a Cyclone 3 with EPCS16 that I'm trying to program using altasmi_parallel and altremote_update. I'm doing the following, but the old FPGA programming still persists: 1. Generate the hexout file in quartus 2 2. Erase the EPCS16 using altasmi_parallel bulk erase 3. Write each byte of the hexout file (also reverse the bits) to the EPCS using altasmi_parallel writes 4. Pulse the reconfig signal on the altremote_update block 5. Reboot the system (just in case) The firmware doesn't update and the old behavior still persists. Any ideas if I'm missing a step? Thanks!
