Altera_ForumUse estimated rbf file size in FPGA datasheet to know the max size of your design in the FPGA, then check EPCQ density..u'll know which one is big enough to fit in ur design.ooh, u can compress the file too if u want to use smaller EPCQ density.

Just refer to the Arria V datasheet for the uncompressed .rbf size:
https://www.altera.com/content/dam/altera-www/global/en_us/pdfs/literature/hb/arria-v/av_51002.pdf Then compare the .rbf size to the EPCQ size. The rule of thumb is that EPCQ device size > FPGA .rbf size. You can enable compression to compress the .rbf size to fit more images into the EPCQ.
