Cyclone V E Development Kit failed on Active Serial Configuration via JTAG

Hi,

I do not program EPCQ directly. I program it via JTAG connection. If I pick the Active Serial Programming, it won't work, I tried it and it doesn't work.

Hi John,

Well, as per checked thoroughly in datasheet, it never written any way of JTAG to program EPCQ, it writen only EPCQ is programmed through 6 pin AS header. And this means through 6 pin header will be using sof or pof file. Besides, jic file=JTAG indirect programming, and not applicable to load jic while connecting that 6 pin AS header.

Also, JTAG in datasheet shows only connected to flash P30 family memory and not EPCQ.

So, it is not supported in this dev kit officially. Manual rework of connecting resistor can be done as per follow the datasheet, but nothing exact connection is given. That 10k resistor is built on board for nstatus, nconfig, and config_done so no need to connect it is correct.

You may try pof file through JTAG port for EPCQ and share the result as I do not have access to that board.

Sincerely hope you can get back to reply as soon you see this. Was trying to help you

Many thanks.
