    Hi,


    For Arria 10, the jic file will automatically reserved address 0x0 to 0x20 for address mapping use for remote update system. If you are not using is then it should be fine to programmed it into 0x0. If you are using jic file then it will automatically reserved the 0x0 to 0x20 as mention in the documentation that I provided to you regarding remote system update.

Thanks for your reply.

Are there any document or application note descripting the mapping between rpd file and its corresponding jic file?

It is very curious that I send rpd data to flash started from address 0x0000_0000 ，FPGA Configuration works correctly。According to Map file, rpd data should send to flash started from address 0x0000_0020。Could Intel give definite discription?
