Feasible Top Level Design of RSU, ASMI with Cyclone V via Ethernet?

Hello everyone! I have a 5CEBA9F Cyclone V on a custom board with EPCQ128 and the goal is to write an application image via UDP Ethernet without using JTAG/USB Blaster. From a top level perspective...

Hi SLe2,

Rather than using .pof file, you need to use .rpd file which contain the correct binary bitsream for AS configuration scheme with EPCQ128 device. You can refer to the following user guide on this:

It does not matter whether using NIOS II and QSYS or not. In theory, as long you can design your host (UDP Ethernet) to be able to interface and communicate with the ASMI + RSU IP, then it should work. There are no exact example design on your application using UDP Ethernet protocol however you may refer to the design store page where there are available RSU+ ASMI example design that you can use as reference:
