Problem about configuration using EPM7256AETC144 and AM29LV128M

I designed a PCB using StratixII devices(EP2S30F484C5),and the configuration scheme was FPP mode.When I downloaded the "config_controller_sratixII_dsp_top.pof" which was used in the "StratixII_DSP_Kit-v6.0.1"(EP2S60F1020C3+EPM7256AETC144-7N+S29GL128M),the EP2S30 could not work.I checked out the configuration scheme and the PCB,there was nothing wrong,so I think the "config_controller_sratixII_dsp_top.pof" is not correct. 

How can I deal with it? Thank you . 

Looking forward to your reply! 

The "ConfigController for EPM7256.rar" is the "StratixII_DSP_Kit-v6.0.1" ConfigController logic.

You cannot use a .pof file for a EP2S60 on a EP2S30. If you have the source for the reference design, you may be able to modify the project to use the EP2S30 device and the pinout of your PCB to generate a correct pof file.

Hello, 

 

the config_controller image shouldn't be specific to EP2S60. Altera is using "EP2S60" configuration controller also with other evalboards, e. g. Cyclone II Nios-board. But the flash image must be programmed separately by Nios II Flash Programmer with an image suitable for EP2ES30. 

 

Regards, 

Frank
