New ContributorWhat kind of file for passive parallel load of Cyclone 10?
A total noob here so be gentle please.
I have a Cyclone 10 CL006 connected to a microcontroller.
I want to load it by a "Fast Passive Parallel" method.
My FPGA engineer sent two files: .sof and .rpd.
The .rpd looks like suitable for the task, but it has some header.
Do I need to skip it, or send the whole .rpd file as is?
After the file data, need to send two more dummy bytes so it starts configuring?
I'm asking because tried to send the .rpd data as is, and of course it won't start running. The engineer has loaded the .sof file over JTAG, and it works.

... and the end of the file:
The answer : use RBF format. RPD format is not suitable.
