+ Nios Development Kit
+ Cyclone Editions
+
+ Last Update: January 2, 2004
+====================================================================
+
+This file contains information regarding U-Boot and the Altera
+Nios Development Kit, Cyclone Edition (DK-1C20). For general Nios
+information see doc/README.nios.
+
+For those interested in contributing ... see HELP WANTED section
+in doc/README.nios.

+
+1. Files
+=========
+ board/altera/dk1c20/*
+ include/configs/DK1C20.h
+
+2. Memory Organization
+=======================
+
+ -The heap is placed below the monitor (U-Boot code).
+ -Global data is placed below the heap.
+ -The stack is placed below global data (&grows down).
+
+3. Examples
+============
+
+The hello_world example works fine. The default load address
+is 0x0100_0000 (the start of SDRAM).
+
+
+4. Programming U-Boot into FLASH with GERMS
+============================================
+The current version of the DK-1C20 port with the default
+configuration settings occupies about 81 KBytes of flash.
+A minimal configuration occupies less than 60 KByte (asmi
+and network support disabled).
+
+To program U-Boot into the DK-1C20 flash using GERMS do the
+following:
+
+1. From the command line, download U-Boot using the nios-run:
+
+ $ nios-run -r u-boot.srec
+
+This takes about 45 seconds (GERMS is not very speedy here).
+After u-boot is downloaded it will be executed. You should
+see the following:
+
+ U-Boot 1.0.0-pre (Oct 4 2003 - 07:39:24)
+
+ CPU: Nios-32 Rev. 3.3 (0x3038)
+ Reg file size: 256 LO_LIMIT/HI_LIMIT: 2/14
+ Board: Altera Nios 1C20 Development Kit
+ In: serial
+ Out: serial
+ Err: serial
+ ==>
+
+
+2. Quit nios-run and start your terminal application (e.g. start
+Hyperterminal or minicom).
+
+3. Download the u-boot code to RAM. When using Hyperterminal, do the
+following:
+
+ a. From the u-boot command prompt start a binary download to SRAM:
+
+ ==> loadb 800000
+
+ b. Download u-boot.bin using kermit.
+
+4. From the U-Boot command prompt, erase flash 0x40000 to 0x5ffff:
+
+ ==> erase 1:4-5
+
+5. Copy the binary image from SRAM to flash:
+
+ ==> cp.b 800000 40000 10000
+
+U-Boot will now automatically start when the board is powered on or
+reset using the Standard-32 configuration. To start U-Boot with the
+Safe-32 configuration, enter the following GERMS command:
+
+ + g 40000
+
+5. Active Serial Memory Interface (ASMI) Support
+================================================
+ASMI is fully supported in U-Boot. Please note that ASMI is supported
+only on Cyclone devices. Do not expect ASMI to work with Stratix or
+APEX devices.
+
+ ************* IMPORTANT *************
+ ===================================================
+ IN ORDER FOR THE NIOS ASMI TO OPERATE PROPERLY, THE
+ CYCLONE DEVICE MUST BE CONFIGURED USING JTAG OR ASMI.
+
+There are two techniques you can use to bootstrap the ASMI. The
+first is to use the program_epcs utility that is part of Altera's SDK.
+But I've found program_epcs to be slow and cumbersome at best.
+
+An undocumented alternative is to use the Quartus device programing
+interface:
+
+ 1. Select "Active Serial" mode.
+
+ 2. Choose the xxx.pof file. For example, for the standard_32
+ configuration use the "standard_32.pof" file.
+
+ 3. Attach your ByteBlaster to J28. Make sure you have the
+ cable attached properly -- the orientation of J28 is
+ different than J24 (the JTAG header). On J28, pin 1 is on
+ the bottom row, left-most pin.
+
+ 4. Press and hold the "Power-On Reset" switch (SW10). You will
+ see the green "Loading" and red "Error" LEDs (LED3 and LED4)
+ in the on state.
+
+ 5. While holding down the "Power-On Reset" switch, start the
+ programming sequence. This only takes about 10 seconds.
+
+ 6. After programming is complete, release the "Power-On Reset"
+ switch. The Cyclone device should now load its configuration
+ from the EPCS4 (U59). The green "User" LED (LED 1) should be
+ blinking if the device was successfully loaded via ASMI.
+
+ 7. Remove the ByteBlaster cable. The cable must be removed to
+ allow the Nios ASMI access to the EPCS4 device.
+
+After you have successfully programmed a configuration into the
+EPCS4, the ASMI will be used to load the Cyclone configuration
+unless the "Force Safe" switch (SW9) is pressed.
+
+NOTE: To maximize the amount of space available for program use,
+you can enable configuration compression in Quartus. With compression
+enabled, the size of the standard_32 configuration data is
+approximately 192 KBytes.
+
+To use the U-Boot ASMI commands, try typing "help asmi" at the
+command prompt. The command "asmi info" will show the current
+status of the ASMI.
