1.6. Compiling and Configuring the Design Example in Hardware
To compile the hardware design example and configure it on your Intel Agilex® 7 device, follow these steps:
- Ensure that hardware design example generation is complete.
- In the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software, open the Intel® Quartus® Prime project <design_example_dir>/hardware_test_design/cpriphy_ftile_hw.qpf.
- Edit the .qsf file to assign pins based on your hardware.
- Click Processing > Start Compilation.
- After successful compilation, a .sof file is available in <design_example_dir>/hardware_test_design/output_files directory. Follow these steps to program the hardware design example on the Intel Agilex® 7 device:
- Launch the Clock Control application and set new frequencies for the design example:
- Y1 — 156.25 MHz
- Y4 — 122.88 MHz, if it is the PMA reference frequency, or else 184.32 MHz
- Y9A — 153.6 MHz
- Click Tools > Programmer > Hardware Setup.
- Select a programming device.
- Ensure that Mode is set to JTAG.
- Select the Intel Agilex® 7 device and click Add Device. The Programmer displays a block diagram of the connections between the devices on your board.
- In the row with your .sof, check the box for the .sof.
- Check the box in the Program/Configure column.
- Click Start.
- Launch the Clock Control application and set new frequencies for the design example:
