Hey,
I have a problem with Cyclone 3 device. The default Parallel Flash Loader (PFL) isn't working. I need a PFL for Active-Parallel configuration.
I noticed that there is a PFL IP by Altera but It mentioned that it supports in Passive-Serial or Fast-Passive-Parallel (Page 8) :

Do you know about an IP for Active-Parallel configuration?
Thank you very much

Hi,
Thank you for contacting Intel community.
As mention in the PFL userguide, PFL IP is only for Passive-Serial or Fast-Passive-Parallel.
Kindly refer below for Active-parallel:

Let me know if you need further information.

hey,
In the link about the Active-parallel, the PFL IP is mentioned (AN 478). So the PFL IP does support the Active-Parallel or I should do a state machine by myself to configure the flash?
thanks

Hi,
Apologize for the misunderstanding.
PFL IP do support Active parallel but only applicable to Cyclone 3 and 4 only. Active parallel supported common flash interface(CFI) parallel flash memory. Hence you may refer to AN478 for further information.
Thank you.
