Multi-page AS configuration for Stratix-II

1,182 Views

Hello Fellow Altera engineers,

I've been working on the Multi-Page Active Serial solution that Altera now provide for the Stratix-II family.

FYI, I only got this to work when I ticked the "Compression" box for each .SOF that was being compiled into the single multi-page .POF.

File > Convert Programming Files > Select Config device > Select AS mode > Add data > Add File (.sof) > Highlight added file > select properties > Tick Compression.

This was luck on my part. The Altera engineer supporting me had an S-II board fitted with an EPCS16, so he had to compress his files by default. My S-II board is fitted with an EPCS64, so I did not need to use compression.

Any who....just a note to stop you all going mad!

TTFN.
