URGENT: Peripheral to Memory DMA Transaction

What Quartus version do you work with? The NIOS EDS is a download at the Altera website, right next to Quartus.

From the IDE help, I guess it should be right-click on the project, then select properties, System library properties.

This is my code: I dunno why it wont work... the data cant be written into sdram.

int main()

{

int i;

int a=100;

unsigned int dst = SDRAM_BASE + 0x400000;

IOWR_ALTERA_AVALON_DMA_STATUS(DMA_BASE, 0x00);

for(i=0;i<100;i++)

{

IOWR(PERIPHERAL_0_BASE, 0, 30);

IOWR_ALTERA_AVALON_DMA_RADDRESS(DMA_BASE, PERIPHERAL_0_BASE);

IOWR_ALTERA_AVALON_DMA_WADDRESS(DMA_BASE,dst);

IOWR_ALTERA_AVALON_DMA_LENGTH(DMA_BASE,100);

}

IOWR_ALTERA_AVALON_DMA_CONTROL(DMA_BASE,0X199);

for(i=0;i<100;i++)

{

printf("%d\n", IORD(dst, i));

}

}

Do you wait for the transfer to finish?

Also, 0x199 does not seem correct. I thought you data is 32bit wide?

while (IORD_ALTERA_AVALON_DMA_STATUS(DMA_BASE) & 1)==0); ?

but I'd suggest using usleep until you confirm the DMA working.

Looks ok to me.

Try reading back the DMA registers, if the correct values are really set.
