9 years agoSecure boot from FPGA and AES
Hi all,
I need to have ability to have a secure boot by flashing the preloader in FPGA and use its AES engine. According to last answer of this post : http://www.alteraforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=52800&highlight=secure+boot flashing preloader using FPGA enables secure boot, is there any documentation or resources to explore this option ? Thanks, Jack.2 Replies

I assume you are using cyclone V SoC. To boot from FPGA, you can refer to here:
https://rocketboards.org/foswiki/view/documentation/bootfromfpga151 However the example above does not use secure boot - you'll have to enable the FPGA image authentication as described here: https://www.altera.com/en_us/pdfs/literature/an/an556.pdf - Altera_Forum

Thank you, I read both documentation and it seems to fit the needs.
