Cyclone II EP2C35 PCI Development Board Reference Manual

Using the Board

To load the program from the factory-programmed EPCS64 device to the
Cyclone II device, follow these steps:

1.

Power-down the board by setting the SW1 switch in the Off
position.

2.

Perform a power-on reset by setting the SW1 switch in the On
position. This will load the factory-created reference design into the
Cyclone II device.

In-System Programming via the JTAG & the SFL Solution
(User-Programmable EPCS64 Device Only)

Although serial configuration devices do not directly support the JTAG
interface, Cyclone II devices have an IP image that can be used as a bridge
between the JTAG interface and active serial interface of the serial
configuration device. Therefore, JTAG in-system programming is
possible for serial configuration devices.

To program the user-programmable EPCS64 device via the SFL solution,
follow these steps:

1.

Convert the SOF to a JIC file.

2.

Use the Quartus II Programmer to program the JIC file into the
EPCS64 device. For step-by-step instructions, refer to AN 370: Using
the Serial FlashLoader with the Quartus II Software
.

The Quartus II software automatically programs the SFL image into
the Cyclone II device, erases the EPCS64 device data, and programs
the JIC image into the EPCS64 device. This process overwrites the
existing image in the Cyclone II device and replaces it with the SFL
image.

3.

Reconfigure the FPGA with the new configuration data. This can be
done by either cycling the power to the board or pressing the
Reconfigure switch (S2).
