12 years agoWe are still evaluating, so still using the web-edition NIOSII and IP. So not much hardware debug info available.
I've tried just pasting stuff into hyperterm at 115200 and it loses characters at roughly the same rate as the little device I'm trying to listen to. cutecom has a setting to put a delay in.. and if I set it to 2ms at 115200 it gets every character and if I set it to 230400 I have to adjust it to 3ms to ensure no probs. since the code that I've provided seems to work correctly at a lower rate... maybe the problem is in how I'm 'setting up' the hardware... I'm using the bsp/project template for 'hello world freestansing'... as part of that I call alt_irq_init (ALT_IRQ_BASE); alt_sys_init(); and that is before I start my code: alt_ic_isr_register..... alt_ic_irq_enable...... I think I'm going to try ripping out all the hardware except for the JTAG uart, the uart I'm using and one timer next.
