NIOS Standard Example design for stratix III

Hi,

I wanted to know if there is Standard NIOS Design example for stratix III EP3SL150 device which is compatible with Altera quartus 10.0.

I have a older standard design version v8.0.

Is there any example complete design using UniPHY controller for DDR 2 SDRAM for altera quartus 10 which I can download.

thanks,

pramod

    i don't think there are any development kit designs for 10.0 yet. it doesn't look like any of the Nios II EDS examples use UniPHY either. you will probably have to build the system yourself

    hi,

    thanks for the reply... i downloaded some development kit version v9.0 from their ftp link ...

    But I have one question ..whenever i try to build system from scratch, i have problems getting the same settings as in the standard for the Altera Memory Controller for DDR2 SDRAM...

    specifically among the last 6 settings, some entries are set to 0.0 in the standard design.,...when I try to enter it, it sees valid values are only between 1.2 to 6... something like that ...

    Even if build the system with this settings...then i cannot download the program ..because debug cable gives an error "m_state == debug " failed

    and this is because of timing errors in DDR2 controller...

    do u know how to get the system up from scratch using DDR2 MemPhy controller..
