Selecting Pages in a JIC file

Hi,

I have created 3 pages in a jic file for reconfiguring the FPGA(Cyclone V) using the external SPI flash(EPCQ256). I wanted to know whether is there a method to select which page i want to use to reconfigure. If so, can anyone guide me through what should be done to get that method working.

Thanks,

Sid

    You can use the Altera Remote Update IP to select from which page in your EPCQ to start device configuration from. See the "altera remote update ip core user guide (https://www.altera.com/en_us/pdfs/literature/ug/ug_altremote.pdf)" for details.

    Set "param" to 100b (Page Select), present the start address of the chosen image to "data_in", pulse "write_param" and then kick "reconfig".

    Cheers,

    Alex
