Here are some very common causes of configuration failures:
•
Check
OSC_CLK_1
frequency. It must match the frequency you specified in the Intel Quartus Prime Software and the
clock source on your board.
•
Ensure a free running reference clock is present for designs using transceivers, PCIe, or HBM2. These reference clocks
must be available until the device enters user mode.
•
For designs using the HPS and the external memory interface (EMIF), ensure that the EMIF clock is present.
•
For designs using SmartVID (-V and -E devices), ensure that this feature is set-up and operating correctly. Ensure that
the voltage regulator supports SmartVID.
Here are some debugging suggestions that apply to any configuration mode:
•
To rule out issues with
OSC_CLK_1
select the Internal Oscillator option in the Intel Quartus Prime.
•
Try configuring the Intel Agilex device with a simple design that does not contain any IP. If configuration via a non-JTAG
scheme fails with a simple design, try JTAG configuration with the
MSEL
pins set specifically to JTAG.
The following topics describe the expected behavior of configuration pins. In addition, these topics provide some suggestions
to assist in debugging configuration failures. Refer to the separate sections on each configuration scheme for debugging
suggestions that pertain to a specific configuration scheme.
