There are two types of programming method supported by DE10-Nano:
1. JTAG programming: It is named after the IEEE standards Joint Test Action Group.
The configuration bit stream is downloaded directly into the Cyclone V SoC FPGA. The
FPGA will retain its current status as long as the power keeps applying to the board; the
configuration information will be lost when the power is off.
2. AS programming: The other programming method is Active Serial configuration.
The configuration bit stream is downloaded into the serial configuration device
(EPCS64), which provides non-volatile storage for the bit stream. The information is
retained within EPCS64 even if the DE10-Nano board is turned off. When the board is
powered on, the configuration data in the EPCS64 device is automatically loaded into
the Cyclone V SoC FPGA.
JTAG Chain on DE10-Nano Board
The FPGA device can be configured through JTAG interface on DE10-Nano board, but the
JTAG chain must form a closed loop, which allows Quartus II programmer to the detect
FPGA device. Figure 3-2 illustrates the JTAG chain on DE10-Nano board.
In addition, the DE10-Nano has one external JTAG Header (J8) reserved for users to
connect to JTAG chain of the DE10-Nano via external blaster. The J8 header is not installed,
so users need to solder a 2.54mm 2 x 5 male pin header if it is necessary.

Configure the FPGA in AS Mode
The DE10-Nano board uses a serial configuration device (EPCS64) to store
configuration data for the Cyclone V SoC FPGA. This configuration data is
automatically loaded from the serial configuration device chip into the FPGA when the
board is powered up.
Users need to use Serial Flash Loader (SFL) to program the serial configuration device
via JTAG interface. The FPGA-based SFL is a soft intellectual property (IP) core within
the FPGA that bridge the JTAG and Flash interfaces. The SFL Megafunction is
available in Quartus II. Figure 3-11 shows the programming method when adopting
SFL solution.

Besides 16 pins for digital GPIO, there are also 6 analog inputs on the Arduino Uno R3
Expansion Header (ADC_IN0 ~ ADC_IN5). Consequently, we use ADC LTC2308 from
Linear Technology on the board for possible future analog-to-digital applications. We will
introduce in the next section.

The DE10-Nano has an analog-to-digital converter (LTC2308).
The LTC2308 is a low noise, 500ksps, 8-channel, 12-bit ADC with a SPI/MICROWIRE
compatible serial interface. This ADC includes an internal reference and a fully differential
sample-and-hold circuit to reduce common mode noise. The internal conversion clock
allows the external serial output data clock (SCK) to operate at any frequency up to 40MHz.
It can be configured to accept eight input signals at inputs ADC_IN0 through ADC_IN7.
These eight input signals are connected to a 2x5 header, as shown in Figure 3-22.
Figure 3-22 Signals of the 2x5 Header
These Analog inputs are shared with the Arduino's analog input pin (ADC_IN0 ~ ADC_IN5),
Figure 3-23 shows the connections between the FPGA, 2x5 header, Arduino Analog input,
and the A/D converter.
More information about the A/D converter chip is available in its datasheet. It can be found
on manufacturer’s website or in the directory \Datasheet\ADC of DE10-Nano system CD.

Register of HDMI Transmitter (ADV7513)
Users can save lots of developing time by paying attention to the settings of video format
and audio frequency in register at address 0x15 and the format of register at address 0xAF
prior to the development of HDMI transmitter. This demo uses 48KHz sampling rate and the
video format is 24-bit RGB 4:4:4. For more details, please refer to the document
ADV7513_Programming_Guide_R0.pdf.
Audio Generator
The ADV7513 can accommodate 2 to 8 channels of I2S audio at up to a 192 KHz sampling
rate. The ADV7513 supports I2S standard, left-justified serial audio, and right-justified serial
audio. Figure 5-6 shows the left-justified serial audio with I2S standard audio of 16-bit per
channel.
Figure 5-6 I2S standard audio with 16-bit per channel
If users want to modify the frequency of audio output, the register value at register 0x15 has
to be modified according to the document ADV7513_Programming_Guide_R0.pdf. The I2S
standard uses MSB to LSB serial way of transmitting. This demo uses sinusoid signal to
synthesis sound from a reference of look up table created by calculated sinusoid wave
data.
Video Pattern Generator
The module “Video Pattern Generator” copes with generating video patterns to be
presented on the LCD monitor. The pattern is composed in the way of 24-bit RGB 4:4:4

This demonstration shows how to use HPS DDR3 as an external buffer of the frame buffer
IP in an FPGA based video pattern generator. The video pattern generator is implemented
based on the VIP (Video and Image Processing) suite. Before running the FPGA demo,
users have to boot the DE10-Nano from HPS to execute the Preloader, Bootloader, and
soc_system.rbf programs from the microSD card for HPS and DDR3 initialization. The
required microSD card image, terasic_hps_ddr3.img, is provided in the DE10-Nano

This demonstration shows how the FPGA can use the HPS DDR3 memory indirectly
without effecting the functionality of the Linux system on HPS. First, it shows how to
configure Linux kernel so the HPS/ARM only uses the bottom 512MB DDR3 memory. In
this case, the remaining 512MB DDR3 memory will be used by the FPGA. Also, we show
how the FPGA accesses the DDR3 memory through the F2H SDRAM interface in the HPS
component. In the demonstration, a Nios2 processor is used as the master in the FPGA to
write and read the pattern data to the DDR3 memory.
System Block Diagram
Figure 5-18 is the block diagram of this demonstration. In this HPS side, DDR3 chips are
connected to the SDRAM controller, and the FPGA can access the top 512MB of DDR3
through the F2H SDRAM interface and the SDRAM controller. The F2H SDRAM interface
is configured as a 32-bit with Avalon bus in this demonstration.
In the FPGA side, the on-chip memory is used as the Nios2 instruction and data memory.
Because the F2H SDRAM interface has a 32-bit address expansion, directly linking Nios2
data port to the F2H SDRAM interface exceeds Nios2 32-bit address range. So, the
Address Span Extender component is used as a bridge between the Nios2 data port and
the F2H SDRAM interface. In the Address Span Extender component, Slave Word
Address Width parameter is set as 27-bit so the address span is 512 megabytes. The

The HPS provides three general-purpose I/O (GPIO) interface modules. Figure 6-2 shows
the block diagram of GPIO Interface. GPIO[28..0] is controlled by the GPIO0 controller and
GPIO[57..29] is controlled by the GPIO1 controller. GPIO[70..58] and input-only GPI[13..0]
are controlled by the GPIO2 controller.
Figure 6-2 Block diagram of GPIO Interface
GPIO Register Block
The behavior of I/O pin is controlled by the registers in the register block. There are three
32-bit registers in the GPIO controller used in this demonstration. The registers are:
gpio_swporta_dr: write output data to output I/O pin
gpio_swporta_ddr: configure the direction of I/O pin
gpio_ext_porta: read input data of I/O input pin
The gpio_swporta_ddr configures the LED pin as output pin and drives it high or low by
writing data to the gpio_swporta_dr register. The first bit (least significant bit) of
gpio_swporta_dr controls the direction of first IO pin in the associated GPIO controller and
the second bit controls the direction of second IO pin in the associated GPIO controller and
so on. The value "1" in the register bit indicates the I/O direction is output, while the value
"0" in the register bit indicates the I/O direction is input.

The first bit of gpio_swporta_dr register controls the output value of first I/O pin in the
associated GPIO controller, the second bit controls the output value of second I/O pin in the
associated GPIO controller and so on. The value "1" in the register bit indicates the output
value is high, and the value "0" indicates the output value is low.
The status of KEY can be queried by reading the value of gpio_ext_porta register. The first
bit represents the input status of first IO pin in the associated GPIO controller, and the
second bit represents the input status of second IO pin in the associated GPIO controller
and so on. The value "1" in the register bit indicates the input state is high, and the value "0"
indicates the input state is low.
GPIO Register Address Mapping
The registers of HPS peripherals are mapped to HPS base address space 0xFC000000
with 64KB size. The registers of the GPIO1 controller are mapped to the base address
0xFF708000 with 4KB size, and the registers of the GPIO2 controller are mapped to the

This demonstration shows how to control the G-sensor by accessing its registers through
the built-in I2C kernel driver in Linux BSP.
Function Block Diagram
Figure 6-6 shows the function block diagram of this demonstration. The G-sensor on the
DE10-Nano board is connected to the I2C0 controller in HPS. The G-Sensor I2C 7-bit
device address is 0x53. The system I2C bus driver is used to access the register files in the
G-sensor. The G-sensor interrupt signal is connected to the PIO controller. This
demonstration uses polling method to read the register data.
Figure 6-6 Block diagram of the G-sensor demonstration
I2C Driver
The procedures to read a register value from G-sensor register files by the existing I2C bus
driver in the system are:
1. Open I2C bus driver "/dev/i2c-0": file = open("/dev/i2c-0", O_RDWR);
2. Specify G-sensor's I2C address 0x53: ioctl(file, I2C_SLAVE, 0x53);
3. Specify desired register index in g-sensor: write(file, &Addr8, sizeof(unsigned char));
4. Read one-byte register value: read(file, &Data8, sizeof(unsigned char));

The step 4 above can be changed to the following to write a value into a register.
write(file, &Data8, sizeof(unsigned char));
The step 4 above can also be changed to the following to read multiple byte values.
read(file, &szData8, sizeof(szData8)); // where szData is an array of bytes
The step 4 above can be changed to the following to write multiple byte values.
write(file, &szData8, sizeof(szData8)); // where szData is an array of bytes
G-sensor Control
The ADI ADXL345 provides I2C and SPI interfaces. I2C interface is selected by setting the
CS pin to high on the DE10-Nano board.
The ADI ADXL345 G-sensor provides user-selectable resolution up to 13-bit ± 16g. The
resolution can be configured through the DATA_FORAMT(0x31) register. The data format
in this demonstration is configured as:
Full resolution mode
± 16g range mode
Left-justified mode
The X/Y/Z data value can be derived from the DATAX0(0x32), DATAX1(0x33),
DATAY0(0x34), DATAY1(0x35), DATAZ0(0x36), and DATAX1(0x37) registers. The DATAX0
represents the least significant byte and the DATAX1 represents the most significant byte. It
is recommended to perform multiple-byte read of all registers to prevent change in data
between sequential registers read. The following statement reads 6 bytes of X, Y, or Z
value.
read(file, szData8, sizeof(szData8)); // where szData is an array of six-bytes

This section introduces how to design an ARM C program to control the led_pio PIO controller.
SoC EDS is used to compile the C project. For ARM program to control the led_pio PIO
component, led_pio address is required. The Linux built-in driver ‘/dev/mem’ and mmap
system-call are used to map the physical base address of led_pio component to a virtual address
which can be directly accessed by Linux application software.
HPS Header File
pio_led component information is required for ARM C program as the program will attempt to
control the component. This section describes how to use a given Linux shell batch file to extract
the Qsys HPS information to a header file which will be included in the C program later.

The batch file mentioned above is called as generate_hps_qsys_header.sh. It is located in the same
folder as DE10_NANO_SoC_GHRD Quartus project. To generate the header file, launch SoC EDS
command shell, go to the Quartus project folder, and execute generate_hps_qsys_header.sh by
typing ‘./generate_hps_qys_header.sh”. Then, press ENTER key, a header file hps_0.h will be
generated. In the header file, the led_pio base address is represented by a constant
LED_PIO_BASE as show in Figure 7-5. The led_pio width is represented by a constant
LED_PIO_DATA_WIDTH. These two constants will be used in the C program demonstration code.
Figure 7-5 pio_led information defined in hps_0.h
Map LED_PIO Address
This section will describe how to map the pio_led physical address into a virtual address which is
accessible by an application software. Figure 7-6 shows the C program to derive the virtual
address of led_pio base address. First, open system-call is used to open memory device driver
“/dev/mem”, and then the mmap system-call is used to map HPS physical address into a virtual
address represented by the void pointer variable virtual_base. The demo code maps the physical
base address (HW_REGS_BASE = 0xfc000000) of the peripheral region into a based virtual
address virtual_base. For any controller in the peripheral region, users can calculate their virtual
address by adding their offset relative to the peripheral region to the based virtual address
virtual_base. Based on the rule, the virtual address of led_pio can be calculated by adding the
below two offset addresses to virtual_base.

The first offset address is 0xff200000 which is defined as a constant ALT_LWFPGASLVS_OFST in
the header hps.h. The hps.h is a header of SoC EDS. It is located in the Quartus installation folder:
D:\altera\embedded\ip\altera\hps\altera_hps\hwlib\include\soc_cv_av\socal
The second offset address is 0x3000 which is defined as LED_PIO_BASE in the hps_0.h header
file which is generated in above section.
The virtual address of pio_led is represented by a void pointer variable h2p_lw_led_addr.
Application program can directly use the pointer variable to access the registers in the controller of
LED_PIO.
Figure 7-6 LED_PIO memory map code
LED Control
C programmers need to understand the Register Map of the PIO core for LED_PIO before they can
control it. Figure 7-7 shows the Register Map for the PIO Core. Each register is 32-bit width. For
detail information, please refer to the datasheet of PIO Core. For led control, we just need to write
output value to the offset 0 register relative to based address 0x3000. Because the led on
DE10-Nano is high active, writing a value 0x00000000 to the offset 0 register will turn off all of the
eight green LEDs. There are 8 green LEDs on DE10-Dano and 7 of them are connected to this
controller. The last LED (LED0) is used to implement FPGA heartbeat. Writing a value 0x000000ff
to the offset 0 register will turn on all of seven green LEDs. In C program, writing a value
0x0000007f to the offset 0 register of pio_led can be implemented as:
*(uint32_t *) h2p_lw_led_addr= 0x0000007f;
