Quartus 18.1 + NiosII F on CyclomV : boot fails!
- 7 years ago
Hello sir,
Kindly check the following items:
1- Make sure you use a clock source to Serial Flash controller IP (EPCQ) up to 25MHz (MAX).
2- Make sure your Nios II is running at 50MHz.
3- Make sure the MSEL is pointing to the correct flash configuration:
If using QUAD, MSEL should be 10010
If using STANDARD, MSEL should be 10011
Please let me know if this could help you.
Thanks
For Anand:
- If try autoaddress, FPGA dont' boot!.
- instead, settings SOF with Start/0x00000 FPGA starts correctly.....
- If loading HEX I select absolute, file converter says me that an overlap occours (obvious, sof starts from 0x000 and I attempt to overwrite it with my hex..)
For GNG:
I create a simple Nios Application, it handle a flashing led
I strictly follow all the guidelines for IN PLACE, ECPQ BOOT
On QSYS, I checked connections between NIOS-IIf , ECPQ and OCRAM as per manual illustration Fig. 88
I select the offset and vectors as explained on fig. 89, so reset point to ECPQ controller and exception to OCRAM
On BSP editor, i follow istructions..
finally, i load the JIC file...
FPGA boots, Nios no... :-(
Please, there is an idea to solve this terrible issue????
