14 years ago"SOF Data item missing input file"
I have been trying to get a PFL in an EPM2210 to program a chain of an EPSGX530 and a EP4SE530 from a 29G512 CFI FLASH without success.
I have a circuit similar to that attached except there are 2 FPGAS with NCEO of first tied to NCE of second. Altera documentation on this subject is very poor and does not cover nearly enough possibilities. I need to convert 2 SOF files to one POF file. See attached. 1) What mode is correct for this - Active Parallel or Fast Passive parallel x8 ? (i.e does this refer to FLASH connection (x16) or FPGA connection (x8) ) 2) I add the SOFs in the correct order to the Low_Byte as directed by AN478. When is click "Generate" I get the "SOF Data item missing input file" error message. 3) Some documentation mentions programming Config Bits etc. Some other does not. Do I need to do this ? Can you please explainn what I am doing wrong ?
