Question about NIOS II and DE0-Nano

first of all, your English is broken.

therefore I may miss your point.

but I want to help you.

- you want to blink LEDs.

- you want to use NiosII.

- you don't know which NiosII should you use.

according to DE0-nano.

it has 32MByte SDRAM.

so you don't have to use on-chip memory, you can use SDRAM memory.

I think DE0-nano board has CD(or something).

it may contain basic project.

can you check it out?

Hi,

In the CD-ROM comes along with DE0-Nano, there is a "demonstration" folder. In side that you can find "myfirst_niosii" folder. It contains all the Quartus Project + Software for LED demo. Just open the project in Quartus, SOPC or Qsys and Nios II IDE or SBT. The example project blinks the LED using the Nios II Processor.

The Example Application uses the On-Chip RAM and the 'C' application just prints "Hello from Nios II" and start incrementing the LEDs.

hi,

first of all.

your English was not wrong.

I'm sorry for that.

does your SOPC have PIO(Peripheral I/O)?

and, is that connected to LEDs?

then what you have to do is writing C-code. like ...

//------------------------------------------------------------------

# include <stdio.h>

# include <io.h>

# include "system.h"

int main()

{

// PIO_BASE is the address of PIO which is declared in system.h

// 0x01 will be condition of LEDs, LED[0] will be lit.

IOWR_8DIRECT(PIO_BASE,0,0x01);

}

//------------------------------------------------------------------

since, I don't know abaout DE0-nano boards information.

I can not answer to your question exactly.

if you have problem, ask me again.

bye bye.
