How does one determine the address space of Nios II program in MAX 10 UFM when using .pof file for internal configuration?

In the current system, the Nios II reset vector is set to On-Chip Flash. After power up the Nios II program is loaded into an external DDR2 RAM from the flash and executes from there. For Max 10 inte...

Hi Hassan,

Okay,

The sectors occupied by .pof will be determined by Nios reset vector & on-chip flash.

Reset vector specifies memory space (offset & base) to the code memory, other memory sectors can be used for other things, Depending on on-chip flash sector access mode.

Example : if in design reset vetor is configured like

reset vector offset:0x000000

reset vector: 0x00080000

& On chip configuration same as image in previous post.

Code memory will be from 0x000000 to 0x0007ffff.

other sectors can be used for user appliction.

Let me know if this has helped resolve the issue you are facing or if you need any further assistance.

Regards

Anand.
