max10 on chip flash reference design

[Altera_Forum]

hi, i am new to altera and nios 

is there a reference design of how to use max10 on chip flash(UFM)? i have checked the design store. thanks!

I'm not aware of a reference design. However, you'll need to use the 'Altera On-Chip Flash' IP. This is comprehensively discussed in the max 10 ufm implementation guides (https://www.altera.com/content/dam/altera-www/global/en_us/pdfs/literature/hb/max-10/ug_m10_ufm.pdf). Chapter 4 talks you through it along with creating a test bench for simulation. 

 Cheers, Alex

Hi, 

 there is a reference design for UFM for MAX10  https://cloud.altera.com/devstore/platform/14.0.2/putting-altera-max-series-in-hibernation-using-user-flash-memory-an547/

i have read the max 10 user flash memory user guide.pdf, it does not tell me how to use the ufm in nios.

Hi, I was searching UFM related information and I found and answer to the above question here: 

 Utilizing the User Flash Memory (UFM) on Max 10 Devices with a Nios II Processor  This design example shows the user how to read, write, and erase portions of the internal flash memory. A sample program is included that shows how to perform those three operations as well as provide a simple user interface for modifying the flash memory  https://cloud.altera.com/devstore/platform/16.0.0/utilizing-the-user-flash-memory-ufm-on-max-10-devices-with-a-nios-ii-processor/   This isn't a timely answer but I wanted to post if for closure.  Kind regards, tjd
