21 years agoboard_diag example for LCD
Hi,
I tried the board_diag example that intalled with the Nios II kits (C:\altera\kits\nios2\examples\software\board_diag). This example provides a means to test most of the devices on a Nios Development Board. I downloaded the standard.sof for the niosII_stratix_1s40 and everythingworked fine for all the peripherals execpt the LCD. I am sure my LCD is a good one because it works with the factory configuration program. Does anyone have an idea why the board_diag example does not work for my LCD? Thank you in advance!

As a guess do you have a compact flash card plugged in? If so the LCD will not work. This is a board problem which is coverred in the errata

Yes, it works after I remove the CF card. Thanks for help!

If you look at the schematic of that board you will see some of the signals for the flash connector shared with J12 which is why you had to unplug the flash card.
