Thank you for your reply!
According to your explanation, I have the following understanding, please help to tell me whether my understanding is correct or not:
1) UART for burning/programing is the same as a common UART. when I use burning tools to send firmware(elf) via UART, the driver/bootloader in NIOS will get to know whether it is firmware or not, and will then save it at correct location in ROM/flash.
2) I can use both UART or JTAG interface to burn both firmware(elf) and bitstream(sof).
3) I am using Quartus 18.1. In compilation report, I can see the total size of memory used, but I can't see the total memory available. For ROM, I have the same question.
4) in the following picture, Total PLL is 1. however, I didn't import PLL IP. why does it report 1 PLL used?
