Power up and down sequencing for MAX 10 Devices

Hello,

Could you please confirm whether power sequencing is required for Max10 FPGAs?

While most related documents indicate that it is acceptable not to use power sequencing, there is one design guideline document that suggests the use of power sequencing for improved reliability.

" Design power sequencing and voltage regulators for the best device reliability—
although power sequencing is not required for correct operation, consider the
power-up timing of each rail to prevent problems with long-term device reliability
if you are designing a multi-rail powered system."
