The Flash Tab

The Flash tab allows you to read and write flash memory on your board.

Figure 6–5

shows the Flash tab.

The following sections describe the controls on the Flash tab.

Read

The Read control reads the flash memory on your board. To see the flash memory
contents, type a starting address in the text box and click Read. Values starting at the
specified address appear in the table. The flash memory addresses display in the
format the Nios II processor within the FPGA uses, that is, each flash memory address
is offset by 0x08000000. Thus, the first location in flash memory appears as 0x08000000
in the GUI.

1

If you enter an address outside of 0xFDFFFFF to 0x0FFFFFFF flash memory address
space, a warning message identifies the valid flash memory address range.
