Programming the Arria 10 GX FPGA Development Kit

Hello, Can I program this kit's FPGA using a .sof file or do I need to first generate a .flash file? Please include instructions if a .sof file is sufficient. Thanks.

Hi,


Since you are using dev kit, there is a switch to disable the MAX V on the dev kit. Please disable the switch and try to configure again.

Please also try the JTAG chain debugger after disable MAX V.


Regards,

Aiman

    Hi,

    I've put development board switch SW4-2 in the ON position to disable the MAX V in the JTAG chain as described in the kit user guide:

    However, the programmer still fails to configure the Arria 10:

    Error (209015): Can't configure device. Expected JTAG ID code 0x02E660DD for device 1, but found JTAG ID code 0x020A30DD. Make sure the location of the target device on the circuit board matches the device's location in the device chain in the Chain Description File (.cdf).

    And the MAX V still shows up in the JTAG chain:

    Any ideas? Thanks.

      Hi Aiman,

      Here are the board's SW3-SW6 switch positions. SW4-2 is in the ON position yet the MAX V device is still in the JTAG chain. Can you provide any further assistance? Thanks.
