19 years agoStrange effect with Stratix FPGA
Hello! I am using a Stratix EP1S10 device on a NIOS II Development Board. I use it for VHDL programming only. That means, I don't use any NIOS stuff in my project. I made my own user configurat...

19 years agoWhy don' t You import the Pin Assigment from a sample design for the development board You are using and modify only the Pin assignments specific to Your design. I have been working with a CYCLONE Development Board sample designs which also shows how to place the LAN Controller in a quiescent state.
When using development board to host my custom design, I found always usesful to open an existing sample design delete their logic and implement my logic; this clears all the board interfacing issues (inlcuding FPGA configuration issues) and allows me to focus on the actual design that I am trying to prototype.
