4.2.3.2. Creating Application Images

The following command is used to create application images:

quartus_pfg -c \
design.sof \
application.rpd \
-o hps_path=fsbl.hex \
-o mode=ASX4 \
-o bitswap=ON \
-o hps=1

The following table describes the parameters:

Parameter Description
design.sof Input SOF file, containing the FPGA design for the application image
application.rpd Output application image
-o hps_path=fsbl.hex Input HPS FSBL hex binary file
-o mode=ASX4 Create image targeting QSPI
-o bitswap=ON Create file in regular binary format
-o hps=1 Use only for HPS first designs

For FPGA first case, the parameter “-o hps=1” must be omitted and the file application.rpd is created. For HPS first case, the parameter “-o hps=1” must be passed, and the following two files created:

  • application.hps.rpd—application image
  • application.core.rbf—corresponding fabric configuration file
