Regular ContributorHi
Yes, you are able to program the FPGA configuration only without the HPS.
In your Quartus project, you could just skip adding the HPS Hard IP into your project.

Occasional ContributorHi Jingyang Teh,
Thank you for the answer.
I need a clarification, in quartus where there is only hardware project no processor (hard / soft), once it's compiled and assembler generates a .sof file, only using this file in quartus programmer in the JTAG mode FPGA can be programmed is that right.
No need of converting this .sof file to any other format, it can be used as is for configuring FPGA through JTAG in FPGA first boot mode, is this correct step or not please advise.
Regards,
Kiran
