Description
It has been found that in Vivado the download.bit image file can be written to the QSPI flash
by renaming it to download.bin. If the system should not boot or work as expected afterwards,
a .bin or .mcs file can be generated as in the Vivado GUI:
1. In the Vivado menu bar in the Tools menu, open the "Generate Memory Configuration
File" window.
2. Choose the boot file format first (BIN or MCS) and for the Memory Part select the
s25fl512s-spi-x1_x2_x4
3. In the Options section, set the Interface to SPIx1
4. Enable the Load bitstream file checkbox
5. At Start address "00000000" with direction "up", add the download.bit file.
6. From the checkboxes at the bottom, enable the Overwrite option
7. Click Ok to generate the boot image.
