How can I migrate the Nios II processor /s core to an equivalent Nios II Gen 2 processor /f core ?

Environment

  • Quartus® II Subscription Edition
  • Nios® II Processor
  • BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
    Description

    The Nios® II Gen 2 processor is released in Quartus® II software version 14.0 with 2 core variations, /e core and /f core. As the Nios II Gen 2 processor does not offer the /s core, users need to configure the Nios II Gen 2 processor with the settings below in order to migrate the Nios II processor /s core to Nios II Gen 2 processor /f core.

    Resolution Nios II Gen 2 processor settings:
    • Main ->
      • Nios II Gen 2 /f
    • Caches and Memory Interfaces ->
      • Data Cache = none
      • Tightly-coupled Memories = none
    • MMU and MPU Settings ->
      • MMU = disable
      • MPU =  disable
    • Advanced Features ->
      • Interrupt controller = Internal
      • Number of shadow register set (0-63) = 0
      • Branch prediction = Static

    You may also use the TCL script provided in the related solution below to automate the migration.
