Hello Ran,

I compiled your minimal design and also was able to download it to an EPM1270. I wonder, however why your device shows ALTERA04-0 Silicon ID while I have ALTERA04-1. I read about an issue with engineering samples that couldn't be programmed from retail version programming files. Does your device have an ES extension stamp? If this is the case, a special project setting could be necessary, but I don't know where.

Regards,

Frank
