4 Upgrade the FPGA in smartfusion using the # ./smarttool -uf /dev/ttyS0 <path_to_the_image>/
<platform>_SMF_logic_v0.E.dat command. You must be in region G to upgrade to region A. The device
automatically reboots after the upgrade.
Figure 16. Upgrade the FPGA
5 Verify that the FPGA is upgraded using the lpctool utility. You can get the FPGA running image version through the ./
lpctool --read --addr=0x200 --size=b registers of the LPC tool.
