Hello everyone,
I have FT601 dev board connected to an Altera Cyclone V GX Startet Board and I'm trying to get the loopback example startet. I downloaded the cyclonev_mst_fifo32_1.1.zip file with the FPGA Configuration and uploaded it to the Cyclone board. I switched the switches for loopback FT600 Mode.
Using the FTDI example Loopback program on my host pc and starting a loopback transfer is succesful for the first loopback transfer, but all other loopback transfers are failing. The data comes back but there is no match between the sendout data and the received data.
Switching to the streamer FPGA configuration and trying to stream data with the FTDI streamer example program on the host pc works, but data throughput is relative low (231 Mbyte/s).
Does anyone else experience similar problems? There is another Altera FPGA Image for download on the same page like the one mentioned beforce. In this configuration the loopback works and is much faster then the other configuration but in this example there is no streamer configuration, however it is cleary stated in the txt-File contained in the zip file Altera_Dataloopback_Firmware.zip :
