Detect PCIe Device in the FPGA
Once the Thunderbolt 3 connection is established between Host and Apollo develop kit, if there is
no PCIe design in the FPGA, the device manager in win10 on the Host side will not detect the PCIe
device. User first needs to program the PCIe design to the FPGA, then re-establish the Thunderbolt
3 connection to the Host that allow the Host to detect the PCIe device in the FPGA.
Below we introduce the use of a Terasic PCIe demo to demonstrate the detection of a PCIe device
on the Host.
1.
Prepare an Apollo S10 Develop kit (Apollo S10 SoM connected with the Apollo Carrier board).
2.
Remove the Micro SD card on the Apollo S10 SoM.
3.
Make sure the Mini USB cable is connected between the USB connector (J8) of the Apollo S10
SoM and Host PC.
4.
Power on the Apollo S10 Develop kit.
5.
Execute the batch file
“
test.bat
” from the path “
/Demonstration/PCIe_DDR4/demo_batch/
” in
