How to program EPCQ with .jic file on Altera C5EFP board?

I use C5EFP board, https://www.altera.com/products/boards_and_kits/dev-kits/altera/kit-cyclone-v-e.html 

 

I program the EPCQ with jic file, get Error (209025): Can't recognize silicon ID for device 1 when it load 87%, but I can load the .sof file successfully. 

 

Then I read the Cyclone V E FPGA Development Board Reference Manual and schematic, the SW1 MSEL[4:0] need to be set as 10010, and also need to remove resistor R16 and R22, then connect resistor R18 and R23. 

 

Do anyone meet the same problem on C5EFP too? Or is the way in the manual rightly described?

Hi, 

 

  1. Check if the .jic file is generated for correct EPCQ device(Check it on board). 

  2. Have you connected the USB blasters to the J6 connector(AS/PS) header?  

  3. Try with MSEL std mode 10011. 

  4. Is FPP configuration successful? 

 

 

Let me know if you need any further assistance.

Dear Anand Raj Shankar, 

 

Thanks for your reply. 

 

2. Could you show me where the J6 connector is? I didn't find it on my board. This is the figure for my board: http://www.terasic.com.cn/attachment/archive/742/image/c5efp_layout_1000.jpg 

 

4. You mean if I can configure FPGA with .sof file? I can configure the .sof file successfully, I use this sof file to convert it to jic file.

Dear Sir, 

 

I am confused with the .jic file programming to a Cyclone V E FPGA Development Kit. 

 

How can people program a .jic file to the EPCQ device on a Cyclone V E FPGA Development Kit? Are the following steps correct? 

 

1. Design a project which includes EPCQ controller? 

2. Remove resistor R16 and R22, populate resistor R18 and R23? 

3. Set MSEL to 10011? 

4. Connect a USB blaster cable?

Should be connected to the jtag header j4 while programming .jic file. 

 

Refer below link for more information.

Hi Anand Raj Shankar ,

 

"Should be connected to the jtag header j4 while programming .jic file"---Coudl you help confirm if it must connect J4 via USB Blaster cable to program .jic file? Why can't connect J10 via USB cable to program .jic file?

 

 

Thanks
