MAX10 -FPGA image remote update using QSPI

[sRama28]

i want to update FPGA sof/pof with new programmed rpd file from remote PC.

Q1.Shall i use QSPI device to update the MAX 10 FPGA image or internal CFM flash for that update?

Q2.if QSPI is ok to update the image .please share the sample project for my reference.

Q3.Please clarify ?After updated the FPGA image how QSPI images are loaded into onchip ram on FPGA.

Hi,

Yes, you will need to use NIOS II with that. You may refer to the following user guide for the flow to implement that.

ALso, we have a how-to-video to perform that. Just in case if audio is more effective than reading.

hi Sooy

thanks for the reply.

i want to update MAX10 CONFIGURATION FLASH MEMORY (CFM) using NIOS processor with the help of Ethernet protocol .the example you have shared is UART.

Q1.Shall you share Ethernet based Remote update project?

Hi Sathish,

Apologize we dont have design example with ethernet. My suggestion is that you need to use Ethernet IP and connect it with remote system update.

For more information, please refer to the user guide below:
