Functional Description
With SRAM-based devices, configuration data must be reloaded each time the device
powers up, the system initializes, or when new configuration data is needed. Altera
configuration devices store configuration data for SRAM-based ACEX 1K, APEX 20K,
APEX II, Arria GX, Cyclone, Cyclone II, FLEX 10K, FLEX 6000, Mercury, Stratix,
Stratix GX, Stratix II, and Stratix II GX devices.
lists the supported configuration devices required to configure the ACEX 1K,
APEX 20K, APEX 20KC, APEX 20KE, APEX II, Cyclone, Cyclone II
,
FLEX 10K,
FLEX 10KA, FLEX 10KE, FLEX 6000/A, FLEX 8000A, Mercury, Stratix, Stratix GX, or
Stratix II device.
