18 years agoHello Clark,
--- Quote Start --- the data will be in the flash memory even u turn off the board --- Quote End --- yes, exactly, that's the nature of flash ROM as a nonvolatile memory in contrast to RAM (without a backup battery). I've learned in the meantime, that you're using a Terasic DE1 board. I don't have one, but I know from the DE1 documentation, that it comes with a lot of example projects, some also using the flash memory, e. g. a flash music player. I guess, these projects show in detail how to "retrieve" flash data from FPGA side. From the PC side, the Control Panel can load and save data from/to the flash memory in a hexadecimal format. With these tools, anything should be possible. Best regards, Frank
