• FPGA Prescale register address incorrect in MPS2(+) software header file

    Annie Cracknell
    Annie Cracknell

    The FPGA prescaler register address is incorrectly defined in the header file SMM_MPS2.h

    This file is used in all Arm test software for MPS2, such as selftest, shieldtest, demo etc. The same header file is also used in MBED base code for MPS2.

    The incorrect…

    Hi,

    I'm trying to build the MPS2 FPGA project (unmodified, as it is supplied in the kit) and constantly getting an error message saying "Quartus Prime Software quit unexpectedly".

    It always crashes at the "Partition Merge" stage after…

    Hi,

    After compiling the MPS2+ FPGA designstart project (unmodified, as-is out of the box), i'm failing to run it on the FPGA.

    While the already downloaded image that arrives on the FPGA runs fine (i run the demo application), the image I compiled…

  • Program MPS2+ directly with Quartus programmer

    Is it possible to directly program the FPGA in the MPS2+ board with the Altera Quartus Programmer?

    As far as I understand is the MPS2+ 10 Pin FJTAG port not compatible to the Alter USB blaster.

    Is there another way to do this?

    Hello,

    I want to use an USB Blaster cable for rapid FPGA prototyping on the MPS2+. 

    The cables differ very much in price.  Is it recommended to buy an original Altera for over 200 Euro or can I use a cheaper nonamee one?

    Could you please recommend a cable…

    Hello expert:

    In MSP2+ board, I found a micro USB connector and some ARM debugger connectors. Can I configure FPGA and run DS-5 using the same micro USB?

    Thanks
