Honored Contributortransfer from internal to external memory
Hallo, I am new in the use of the nios system and tried to transfer a program using up to now internal memory of the cyclon chip to extenal memory.
It seems to fail to change the reset / exeption adress from internal to external memory ( SDRam ) and then download the new code ( also changed in the ide this locations ). Can someone help me to do this correct? best regards Karl http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif3 Replies
Altera_ForumHi schinner
If you use reset / exeption address in SOPC Builder is SDRAM and also use Programme memory, read only data memory, read/write data memory,heap memory and stack memory in Nios IDE as SDRAM then I am sure that system works perfectly. but the condition is that pin assignment and all the timing parameter of SDRAM is perfect. Have you check the simple "hello world" programme using your system? Please send me the error report which you got.... regards, slsnios- Altera_Forum
Dear slsnios
it seems to work fine, but after starting the software from nios ide i got the message nios terminal "connected to hardwware target using jtag uart on cable" then "Use the IDE stop button or ctrnl-C to terminate" and that´s it the program didn´t visually start ( no output at all ). - Altera_Forum
HI
If you run the programme from Nios IDE and it run but not dispay any message means , nios cpu does not working . So first check the simple "hello world" programme in nios ide and then check is it working or not. then go ahead Thanks slsnios
