Hi,
I would recommend you to send rpd file rather than jic file. You can modify the design example to UART or other interface.
You can also refer to https://fpgacloud.intel.com/devstore/platform/15.1.0/Standard/remote-system-upgrade-over-uart-based-on-nios-ii-processor-with-epcq/ which performed remote update and you can add the Generic Serial Flash IP in order to update the flash content.
Hi,
Thanks for the real time answer. We will check on rpd format & how we can use UART/SPI interface to send that format from external processor.
Just one concern with remote update. If at all remote update failed due to unwanted scenarios like external processor shutdown or FPGA shutdown in the middle of remote update, whether Flash will contain previous image until new image is written completely or we need to take this scenario by creating 2 images in the EPCQ memory (one image is factory image & other is updated image)?
With regards,
