1.The RBF is still not the correct programming file format for AS configuration scheme. 2.RPD is the correct file format for Active Serial configuration scheme. In the EPCS datasheet has mention the usage .rpd file. https://www.altera.com/content/dam/altera-www/global/en_us/pdfs/literature/hb/cfg/cyc_c51014.pdf 3.AS configuration scheme only support .jic, .pof and .rpd file format. The .rpd file is a binary file for EPCQ/EPCS devices containing a binary bitstream of configuration data for FPGAs that support Active Serial configuration. 4.You can compare the RPD contents is the same as .jic file contents. The RBF file has always been use for passive type configuration scheme such as Passive Serial and Fast Passive Parallel. 5.Use RPD file for AS configuration scheme and not RBF file.
