13 years agoOK, if Flash pins are not shared, "tristate conduit pin sharer" is not needed.
Flash presets (Quartus 12.0SP1) didn't make me happy ;-) Flash memory must be taken as memory in BSP In qsys-edit, flash memory generic .... component editor, check : (this is an example) in module_assignment :
embeddedsw.configuration.hwClassnameDriverSupportList = altera_avalon_lan91c111:altera_avalon_cfi_flash
embeddedsw.configuration.isMemoryDevice = 1
embeddedsw.CMacro.SIZE = 4194304 for my 4MB
embeddedsw.configuration.hwClassnameDriverSupportDefault = altera_avalon_cfi_flash
embeddedsw.memoryInfo.IS_FLASH = 1
embeddedsw.memoryInfo.FLASH_INSTALL_DIR = APP_DIR in interface_assignment :
embeddedsw.configuration.isMemoryDevice = 1
embeddedsw.configuration.isFlash = 1
embeddedsw.configuration.isNonVolatileStorage = 1
embeddedsw.configuration.isPrintableDevice =0
embeddedsw.CMacro.SIZE = 4194304
embeddedsw.CMacro.SETUP_VALUE = 65
embeddedsw.CMacro.WAIT_VALUE = 100
embeddedsw.CMacro.HOLD_VALUE = 30
After generating Qsys, you will be able to select "altera_avalon_cfi_flash" for flash in BSP editor. EDIT : Good Luck
