15 years agoHi,
I have not tried the memory test example yet, but it looks to be a hardware (hdl) issue rather than firmware issue. I have stepped through the code and from the alt_epcs_flash_query function (originating from the alt_sys_init function) there are two calls to attemp to read the silicon ID (epcs_read_electronic_signature and epcs_read_device_id). For both of these functions, the chip select to the epcs flash is driven low, but as I stated previously there is no activity on either the data or clock pins (the clock signal is actually sitting at an intermediate voltage of about 1V). Any suggestions on what to check or try would be appreciated.
