The DE10-Standard board uses a quad serial configuration device (EPCS128) to store
configuration data for the Cyclone V SoC FPGA. This configuration data is automatically
loaded from the quad serial configuration device chip into the FPGA when the board is
powered up.
Users need to use Serial Flash Loader (SFL) to program the quad serial configuration device
via JTAG interface. The FPGA-based SFL is a soft intellectual property (IP) core within the
FPGA that bridge the JTAG and Flash interfaces. The SFL Megafunction is available in
Quartus II.
Figure 3-9
shows the programming method when adopting SFL solution.
Please refer to Chapter 9: Steps of Programming the Quad Serial Configuration Device for the
basic programming instruction on the serial configuration device.
