Can any explain or give example design for Arria 10 gx remote upgrade generic flash access using flash epcql1024 for board part no 10AX115S2F45

Hi,

Based on my understanding, you are requesting for reference design for Generic Serial Flash IP. You may refer to https://fpgacloud.intel.com/devstore/platform/18.0.0/Standard/generic-serial-flash-interface-intel-fpga-ip-core-reference-design/ and migrate it to Arria 10 device.

Hi @JohnT_Intel 

In this design there are using Ethernet IP but  we want use uart in our design. So can give the example design with Uart IP. i reffered all the design whatever you given below link but we are not able to upgrade the flash.

Hi,

Pleas refer to https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/programmable/documentation/lro1432739743862.html for the Nios II booting from EPCQ

Hii @JohnT_Intel 

Thank we are able print in nios II BTS, but in remote upgradation : sending .rpd file in the uart terminal is not happening. Can you give me some solution for how to flash the epcql1024 with uart terminal(without using Quartus tool I want flash the arria 10 device). 

below i attached my project can give me solution.

Hi,

Have you try to refer to reference design in https://fpgacloud.intel.com/devstore/platform/15.1.0/Standard/remote-system-upgrade-over-uart-based-on-nios-ii-processor-with-epcq/?

Hi @JohnT_Intel 

Thanks,

Yes, I refered

Hi,

May I know what is the issue that you are facing based on the UART interface? Have you tried SignalTap the internal signal to check if what is happening?
