6.3.1. Configuring the FPGA Using Programmer
You can use the Quartus® Prime Programmer to configure the FPGA with your SRAM Object File (.sof).
Ensure the following:
- The Quartus® Prime Programmer and the Intel® FPGA Download Cable II driver are installed on the host computer.
- The micro-USB cable is connected to the FPGA development board.
- Power to the board is on, and no other applications that use the JTAG chain are running.
- Start the Quartus® Prime Programmer.
- Click Auto Detect to display the devices in the JTAG chain.
- Click Change File and select the path to the desired .sof.
- Turn on the Program/Configure option for the added file.
- Click Start to download the selected file to the FPGA. Configuration is complete when the progress bar reaches 100%.
Using the Quartus® Prime Programmer to configure a device on the board causes other JTAG-based applications such as the Board Test System and the Power Monitor to lose their connection to the board. Restart those applications after configuration is complete.
