New ContributorEMIF TOOLKIT failure, see screenshot. Added Hard Memory controller to design, but calibration results show a failure in the EMIF toolkit. what is the source of the error?
Super ContributorWhat is your target device? Did you enable EMIF Toolkit accessibility when you parameterized the IP?
Also, you can find much more up-to-date documentation here:

ALee11I'm using USB blaster II indeed. I'm working w/ Cyclone V E family w/ HMC, so no ARM cortex
Is the cyclone V E device supported? according to this, the cyclone V SOC is not supported, so I am wondering if the E is supported.

Dear ALee11,
May I know what Quartus version are you using? And if it is old version then I suggest you to try use newer Quartus version and see if it the error still there or not.
Next, I recommend you to create the example design, place it into same location and re-try the toolkit.
Also, without using emif toolkit, can you try to check the calibration status signal and see it is pass calibration? I am asking this because when there is no pll_ref_clk supply to the emif IP, it will cause the linking fail since the toolkit cannot detect anything from emif ip.
Hope this is helpful 😊
Regards,
