Due to a problem in the factory default SFL image in the Quartus® Prime Software, some general purpose I/O (GPIO) pins drive low when programming a serial configuration device with JTAG indirect configuration file (.jic) in the following variants of Cyclone® V SoC devices:
- Cyclone V SE - Member Code A5, Package F896 (31mm)
- Cyclone V SX - Member Code C5, Package F896 (31mm)
- Cyclone V ST - Member Code D5, Package F896 (31mm)
To work around this problem, replace the original factory default SFL image for the affected devices with the corrected image by doing the following steps.
- Download the following file and unzip it. You can find the corrected default SFL image, sfl_enhanced_01_02d120dd.sof.
- Open the directory factory default SFL images location.
- Quartus® Prime Software : <install directory>/quartus/common/devinfo/programmer
- Stand-alone Quartus® Prime Software Programmer : <install directory>/qprogrammer/common/devinfo/programmer
- Find sfl_enhanced_01_02d120dd.sof in the directory and replace it with the corrected SFL image.
This problem has been fixed since the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software version 19.1. However, the Quartus® Prime Standard Edition Software is still affected by this problem. Use the above workaround when the Quartus® Prime Standard Edition is used or use the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Programmer tool version 19.1 and later instead. The Quartus® Prime Standard Edition Software will be improved in a future version.
