Title: Programming a FPGA
Thanks for the info.
 
Yes, if you could send me a copy of the source that flashes from the .ttf file, that would be great.
 
I'll look for the Altera AppNote.

OK,
 
the main thing is to write the data serial (byte by byte) to the base address of the fpga. after each writing you have to make sure that the status register is set correctly (if not you may have to wait or there may be an error). before starting the writing-process you have to set the config-register to tell the fpga to get ready for programming.
 
there is also a altera AppNote on the process which describes it all a little more detailed, if you want I can search for the sourcecode of the program that flashes our fpga (i am not sure if i have it at home)

We are using an Altera part on a home grown board.  Previous to this, any work of this type was done on platforms without an OS and with the device image in an EEprom.
 
Any information you are willing to share would be most appreciated!

Thank You.

Which hardware do you use? We used a Constellation Flex Board and implemented a little program to flash the FPGA Board with our Design (.ttf) file after booting. The Protocoll is simple, if you need you can get details or perhaps the program!

Does anyone know of any driver code that shows the programming of a FPGA on the target device board, from a file on the system disk?

Thank You.
