  • Hello! I'm your chat assistant, and I've reviewed the User's Manual for the HUMANDATA ACM-014 series FPGA boards. This document provides comprehensive details on how to use these boards, including specifications, component overviews and configuration steps. You'll find information on power requirements, JTAG connector, and programming instructions. The board features an Altera Cyclone II FPGA, on-board clock, SRAM and flash memory. I'm here to answer any questions you might have about the document or the features of these boards. Feel free to ask!
  • What is the input voltage for the board?
    How can I program the configuration device?
    What is the typical power-on reset time?

4. Divorcing SRAM
If you do not need the SRAM, you can divorce it by cutting
the pattern PTJP. It makes a Chip Enable (CE) of the
SRAM fixed to High. You can also control it with 142 pin of
the FPGA.
5. FPGA Configuration
To configure the FPGA via JTAG, please refer to the following steps.
1. Open [Tools] menu, then click [Programmer].
2. Select [JTAG] from [Mode] list.
3. Open [Processing] menu, then click [Auto Detect].
4. Double-click [none] and select the sof file you made.
5. Check [Program/Configure] and [Verify].
6. Open [Processing] menu, then click [Start].
If configuration is completed successfully, the DONE LED will light up.
Advice
Check if FPGA device name you set is same as that on the board.
Please check unused pins setting.
Quartus II help will give you more information.
6. Configuration Device Programming
6.1. Programming via AS Connector
To program the configuration device in AS mode, please refer to the following steps.
1. Open [Tools] menu, then click [Programmer].
2. Select [Active Serial Programming] from [Mode] list.
3. Open [Edit] menu, then click [Add File].
4. Select the pof file you made.
5. Check [Program/Configure] and [Verify].
6. Open [Processing] menu, then click [Start].
ACM-014 v1.1 8
6.2. Programming via JTAG Connector
To program the configuration device via JTAG , you need to prepare jic (JTAG
Indirect Configuration) file. You can generate jic file from sof file using Quartus II.
Please refer to the following steps.
Generating jic file
1. Open [File] menu, then click [Convert Programming Files].
2. Select [JTAG Indirect Configuration File] from [Programming file type] list.
3. Select the device name which on the board from [Configuration device] list.
4. Fill the [File name] as you like.
5. Click [Add Device], then select [Device family] and [Device name].
6. Click [Add File…], then select the sof file for input file.
7. Click [Generate].
Programming Configuration Device
8. Open [Tools] menu, then click [Programmer].
9. Select [JTAG] from [Mode] list.
10. Open [Processing] menu, then click [Auto Detect].
11. Select the jic file you made.
12. Check [Program/Configure] and [Verify]
13. Open [Processing] menu, then click [Start].
After programming is completed successfully, turn off and on the power.
Configuration data in the configuration device will be automatically loaded into the
FPGA.
Advice
Check if the configuration device name, FPGA device family name and
device name you selected in step 3 and 5 are same as those on the board.
Quartus II help will give you more information.
