Hi,
Please connect to 2.5V VCCA even though the VCCIO of the banks where the configuration pins reside is 3.3V.
For more information, you can refer to this Knowledge Base article:

Hi,
This is the reference from the Cyclone IV Handbook for PS configuration mode using the download cable.

It shows the pull-up voltage for the USB blaster as well as the MSEL pin. It also shows the connection guideline for Pin 4 and 6 of the Male Header
For further information, you can refer to the handbook.

Hi,
i have referred this Handbook for Cyclone 4E, my doubt is that, all my I/O banks VCC's are 3.3V and here they have given pullup voltage reference as VCCA. all these configurations pins are available in Bank 1 and Bank 6, and there respective VCCIO is 3.3V. if i gave pullup voltage VCCA of 2.5V to this lines, is there any problem occurs, or is it okay to provide any of the one (3.3V or 2.5v)..?
