But that IP would then have to be present in the FPGA. Which means it needs to be already programmed.
I mean using a .jic file in something like a Micron MT25QL (that shows up as supported device in Quartus Prime Lite 21.1) to load firmware on power up.
The Generic Flash Programmer Guide describes this for Arria 10 and Cyclone 10 GX. But not for Cyclone 10 LP. But is it the same for LP?
I also noticed in Quartus 17.1 you can´t choose "Add new device" to configure Generic Flash devices other than Intels. Can I find information somewhere which version of Quartus support this? And by which version was Third party devices added? MT25QL as I mentioned above for example.
EDIT: Sorry found my answer to the last question
Intel Supported Third Party Configuration Devices
Table 3 shows the criteria of third party configuration devices supported by Intel Quartus Convert Programming File Tools and Quartus Programmer version 21.3 Pro Edition and 20.1 Standard Edition.
