Hi,


May I know how is the system hang meant by? Is it during Quartus Programmer programming or the FPGA can be configured with the POF but the FPGA is not functioning at all after that?

    Hi Aiman,

    The FPGA is not functioning. That is why my system hang when I use POF file. Using the SOF file, the FPGA is working fine and my system fill function normally as per the Verilog design.

    The funny thing is that, it will work fine using the POF programming if I change my Verilog codes from using 32 FIFOs to using only 3-4 FIFOs.

    Rgds,
