Documentation Errors for Boot from FPGA Features

Description

The documentation for the SoC HPS v.12.1 describes signals for the boot-from-FPGA feature. These signals are not accessible to logic in the FPGA portion of the SoC.

Resolution

Update to v14.0 or later of the following documents:

  • The Cyclone V Device Handbook Volume 3: Hard Processor System Technical Reference Manual (FPGA Manager and Instantiating the HPS Component chapters)
  • The Arria V Device Handbook Volume 3: Hard Processor System Technical Reference Manual (FPGA Manager and Instantiating the HPS Component chapters)
  • The Cyclone V SoC HPS Address Map and Register Definitions
  • The Arria V SoC HPS Address Map and Register Definitions

These documents contain corrected descriptions of the f2h_boot_from_fpga_on_failure and f2h_boot_from_fpga_ready signals, indicating that the signals are always pulled high.
