Programming EPCS with altasmi_parallel

1,068 Views

I have a Cyclone 3 with EPCS16 that I'm trying to program through an RS232 serial connection to a remote host. I'm using altasmi_parallel and altremote_update as follows:

1. Generate the hexout file in Quartus 2

2. Erase the EPCS16 using altasmi_parallel builk erase

3. Write each byte of the hexout file (also reverse he bits) to the EPCS using altasmi_parallel writes (starting at address 0).

4. Pulse the reconfig signal on the altremote_update block

5. Reboot the system (Just in case)

The firmware doesn't update and the old behavior still persists. Any ides if I'm missing a step?

Thanks!
