To generate passive programming files by manually using the makeprogfile utility:

1. If you have not already done so, use an assembler, C/C++ compiler, linker, and code converter to convert software source files into a Hexadecimal (Intel-Format) File (.hex) that contains Excalibur^™ embedded processor stripe memory initialization data for the ARM^®-based Excalibur device you are targeting.

2. If you have not already done so, run the ARM-based Excalibur MegaWizard^® Plug-In, which is available from the MegaWizard Plug-In Manager (Tools menu), to generate a System Build Descriptor File (.sbd) that contains stripe configuration information for the ARM-based Excalibur device you are targeting.

3. If you have not already done so, generate a programmable logic Partial SRAM Object File (.psof) that contains the configuration data for the programmable logic device (PLD) portion of the ARM-based Excalibur device.

4. Use the makeprogfile utility to process the HEX File, SBD File, and PSOF to generate one or more passive programming files.

To generate passive programming files using the Compiler:

Generate optional programming files for SRAM Object Files (.sof).

or

Generate optional programming files for Programmer Object Files (.pof).
