12 years ago --- Quote Start --- I was wondering if a simulation model excised for the Cyclone III device being programmed via passive serial. I am using the Cyclone III and using the MAX II device to auto program the FPGA from flash. I am trying to simulate my MAX II design, I found a model for the flash, but I need a model for the configuration pins on the FPGA. If you know where one exists, I would greatly appreciate it. --- Quote End --- Here's a pretty simple one that I use. My PS/FPP controller has a programmable byte-count, so I just make it smaller for simulation. If you've hard-coded your controller byte-count, then you can change the generic on the model. The model uses an enumeration so that you can view the configuration stages. Cheers, Dave
