3. Copy and modify the .mif files for the HD-SDI ROMs and edit word 23.
4. Set the appropriate ROMs to use the .mif files generated in steps 2 and 3 .
5. Run the Quartus II compilation.
For Arria II GX and Stratix IV devices, you must set the ROMs to use the fixed .mif in
the example\a2gx_tr\source\sdi_dprio_siv directory and compile once. Ensure that
you use the supporting reconfiguration code in the same directory for your design.
OpenCore Plus Time-Out Behavior
OpenCore Plus hardware evaluation can support the following two modes of
operation:
■ Untethered—the design runs for a limited time
■ Tethered—requires a connection between your board and the host computer. If
tethered mode is supported by all megafunctions in a design, the device can
operate for a longer time or indefinitely
All megafunctions in a device time out simultaneously when the most restrictive
evaluation time is reached. If there is more than one megafunction in a design, a
specific megafunction’s time-out behavior may be masked by the time-out behavior of
the other megafunctions.
1
For MegaCore functions, the untethered time-out is 1 hour; the tethered time-out
value is indefinite.
Your design stops working after the hardware evaluation time expires and the rst
signal goes high.
f For more information on OpenCore Plus hardware evaluation, refer to “OpenCore
Plus Evaluation” on page 1–5 and AN320: OpenCore Plus Evaluation of Megafunctions .
