Programming EPCQ
Hello,
On my board, I have a Cyclone V connected to a EPCQ-A memory . The Cyclone V FPGA is configured by EPCQ, where I have different configurations. To offer remote update functionnality to a customer, I want to update FPGA configuration stored in EPCQ.
In Quartus Platform Designer IP Catalog, there are many IPs that could fullfill my requirement such as :
- ASMI parallel Intel FPGA IP
- Generic Serial Flash Interface Intel FPGA IP
- Serial Flash Controller Intel FPGA IP
I cannot understand what are the differences between them (except block interfaces of course). Anyone could help ?
Thank you

Hi,
To get the differences, you can always refer to our userguide per below:
GSFI: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/programmable/683419/23-1-20-2-3/user-guide.html
From the whole overview, we can say that Generic Serial Flash Interface IP can provide more efficient alternative compare to the ASMI IP and it is recommended for new design.

Aiman
