Hi,

We are trying to use a N25Q512 device from Micron with a Stratix V. Is this device supported? If not - considering that N25Q256 is supported - is there a workaround to use this device.

We have an SPI-FLASH connected to a Stratix V. The Stratix V is configured in Active Serial Mode and we are trying to boot the FPGA with the code loaded in the serial FLASH.

The FLASH is socketed - so we can program it externally. Can someone advice what format does the FPGA image needs to be to allow direct programming of the SPI-FLASH?

Thanks
