Once the Agilex™ 5 SoC FPGA exits POR, the SDM samples the MSEL[2:0] pins to determine the boot source. Next, the device configures the SDM I/Os according to the selected boot source interface and the SDM retrieves the configuration bitstream through the interface.
The typical configuration bitstream for FPGA configuration first contains:
- Configuration firmware for the SDM
- FPGA I/O and HPS external memory interface (EMIF) I/O configuration data
- FPGA core configuration data
- HPS FSBL code and FSBL hardware handoff binary data
The SDM completes the configuration of the FPGA core and I/O, and then copies the HPS FSBL code and HPS FSBL hardware handoff binary to the HPS on-chip RAM.
