MAX 10 ROM/RAM Init failure. Code error on both silicon and simulator. Error (14703): Invalid internal configuration mode for design with memory initialization

Another question was open, it seems a duplicate but: I restarted design of another board where exhibiting strange defect. Prepared a a fresh new project file, I reloaded all IP core and connected ...

Hi,

If you want to store in internal flash or want to load image after power cycle, you can use pof file.

If you just want program fpga, used sof file (your image will missing after power cycle).

For your design above, I think stored your image on .pof file.

Thanks😉

    Hi MShafiq, good answer!

    No compilation no pof nor sof!

    CANNOT GET DESIGN COMPILED, so no ram initialization, more than one bug is report there.

    These annoying bug and Altera/Now Intel answer are very upsetting.

    Reread and you find all about this multiple bug on memory initialization.

    some test changing content of hex memory file revealed UFM image is just on .pof, .sof does'nt change.

    No idea about IPcore ram rom, cannot get design compiled.

    When i try read UFM i read garbage then some sequence of hex file but with odd offset I cannot figure where it come from.

    I try'd too many test, MAX10 was great, now is scrap due to bad software and support too.

    Using "convert programming file" combining both .sof and .hex file produce a .pof identical to design output.

    Best regards.
