4.4.2. Program On-Board EPCQ or EPCQ-A Flash Memory

The FPGA is set to Active Serial configuration mode by default. You can use the Intel® Quartus® Prime Programmer to program a .jic file to EPCQ or EPCQ-A flash.

Program the EPCQ or EPCQ-A Flash

  1. Ensure the DIP switch SW1.4 is ON to bypass virtual JTAG TAP and then power on the board.
  2. Open Intel® Quartus® Prime Programmer and ensure that JTAG is detected under Hardware Setup.
  3. Select Auto Detect and choose the correct FPGA device.
  4. Right-click on the FPGA device and select Edit > Attach Flash Device.
  5. Select ASC Devices > EPCQ64 (or EPCQ128A) in the pop-up window and then click OK.
  6. Right-click on the EPCQ64 (or EPCQ128A) device and select Edit > Change File. Next, choose the generated .jic file you want to program.
  7. Select the Program/Configure checkboxes for FPGA and EPCQ or EPCQ-A devices. Click Start to begin programming the FPGA.
  8. Flash is programmed successfully when the progress bar reaches 100% and displays Successful.
Attention: Please set SW1.4 to OFF if your following operations need to enable virtual JTAG TAP.
Note: Either EPCQ64 or EPCQA128 may be used on boards of different board revisions. Refer to "EPCQ or EPCQ-A Flash Memory" for details.
