Example project

Added by Malcolm Hartnell about 9 years ago

I've just started to evaluate the MitySOM-5CSX board and the first thing I did was install VirtualBox and the supplied Xubuntu image. After compiling the included example project in Quartus II 14.0 I noticed some critical warnings and some ignored assignments. I also tried the example project on this Wiki and that will not even compile without renaming one of the modules in qsys. Is there an example project available from Critical Link that is clean (and preferably uses Quartus II 14.0 or 14.1)?

Some example warnings:
Critical Warning (127003): Can't find Memory Initialization File or Hexadecimal (Intel-Format) File /home/user/projects/mitysom_5csx_dev_board/base_project/build/hps_AC_ROM.hex -- setting all initial values to 0
Critical Warning (127003): Can't find Memory Initialization File or Hexadecimal (Intel-Format) File /home/user/projects/mitysom_5csx_dev_board/base_project/build/hps_inst_ROM.hex -- setting all initial values to 0

Critical Warning (169085): No exact pin location assignment(s) for 83 pins of 279 total pins.
Critical Warning (174073): No exact pin location assignment(s) for 1 RUP, RDN, or RZQ pins of 2 total RUP, RDN or RZQ pins

Thanks,
Malcolm

Hi Malcom.

I will check on the memory init files issue. I seem to recall that those can be ignored, but I don't remember why off-hand.

The missing pin assignments will work (they are the HPS fixed pin assignments, and the fitter will assign the correct locations). You can run back-annotation from a compiled design to get the assignments and update the project QSF file. We have done that a couple of times since 13.1 but it looks like that example project didn't get updated to include the mappings. I will see that we update it.

Sorry for the confusion.
