14.3.3. Active Serial Configuration Flash in SDM Based Devices

For SDM AS configuration flash, you need to instantiate the Mailbox Client Intel® FPGA IP in the processor system to read the file system.

During JIC generation in Programming File Generator, you can attach the HEX file system as Hex Data with the following settings,

  • Start Addressing with specified start address (Offset from memory base address)
  • Bit Swap

And program the JIC file using the Quartus® Prime Programmer.

Assumption: The offset from the memory base address is 0x2000000.
