Generating Flash Programming file using sof2flash
- 1 year ago
Hi Shaul,
From the sof2flash description, it will generate a s-record/srec file output
I saw that is one KDB on converting , but I'm not sure whether it supports your flash size density , but you can try if needed and change the EPCQ.

Alternatively I was talking to our engineering, since niosII is obsolete and removed from newer Quartus Pro version, tools such as sof2flash & nios2-elf-objcopy also been removed , the recommended approach for programming SOF into QSPI is to use JIC file instead.
Thanks

Thanks Kian,
Meanwhile it looks like nios2-elf-objcopy command works with RPD file conversion.
Do you know what is the difference with sof2flash output versus nios2-elf-objcopy output.
I mean what is actually the file format output of sof2flash because I can have different format conversion with nios2-elf-objcopy.
