When using the EPCS Flash Controller on Cyclone® III and Cyclone® IV, the generated Qsys system has dclk, sce, sdo, and data0 ports. How should I connect?
Category: Quartus® Prime / Quartus® II (Qsys)
Tools: Quartus® Prime / Quartus® II
Devices: Cyclone® III/Cyclone® IV, EPCQ/EPCS
Assign them in the top design as follows.
data0 ⇒ DATA0
sdo ⇒ DATA1, ASDO
dclk ⇒ DCLK
sce ⇒ FLASH_nCE
Also, when using the EPCS Flash Controller from a user program, it is necessary to set the Dual Purpose Pin so that it can be used as User I/O when the FPGA enters user mode.
