12 years agoI managed to use on chip RAM as a boot up for the second CPU.
The on chip RAM is initialized using a .hex file. The first CPU is booting up from EPCQ Results: Both CPU's are functioning well The next step is: to change the "Linker Script" in BSP Editor of the second CPU (which booted up from the initialized on chip RAM) as shown in the attached picture I also enabled some bits in hal.linker as shown in the attached file (those bits are selected based on http://www.altera.com/literature/hb/nios2/n2sw_nii52015.pdf page 39 ) Result: The second CPU is not booting up any more! Any idea?
