Hi,
I tried to program the Intel P30 flash device following the instructions of the Cyclone III FPGA Starter Kit User Guide in Appendix A but the Quartus II Programmer shows three errors and the programming has not worked out. These are the errors: Error: Flash Loader IP not loaded on device 1 Error: Unexpected error in JTAG server -- error code 5 Error: Operation failed How I can solve my problem? Thanks Vincenzo FinocchiaroLink Copied

It probably means that the FPGA doesn't have the correct configuration in it to program your config memory from JTAG.
What sort of file are you using to program it? If you're programming a serial config device from JTAG then you need a .jic. If you're using a .pof file then you need to connect straight to the config memory - i.e. not through JTAG - check that the prog / run switch is in the correct position.- Mark as New

I'm using a .pof file as specified in Cyclone III Starter Kit User Guide - Appendix A.
If I can't program the flash memory via USB interface on my board, I can try to configure my FPGA to load the .pof file in the flash. If you have a faster solution write me. Thanks in advance. Vincenzo Finocchiaro- Mark as New

Hi!
Maybe it's too late by now, but I had the same problem today. I figured out, that you have to choose a PFL image for the Cyclone device to be able to program the flash memory with a *.pof file. You can find the images at ../quartus/common/devinfo/programmer. Hope this helps! Michaela- Mark as New

u must vonvert .sof to .pof and baseaddress=0x20000 then use quartus programmer to burn ,in programmer you can select auto detect then attach
flash device then change file to select your .pof then check program/config top line auto select to default pfl then press start,ok.if you have nios in flash programmer you do not check Program FPGA configuration.- Mark as New
