Hi Aiman,

Thank you for your reply.

Do you get any error when programming MAX10?

It is working fine. We have compared the content with Quartus Programmer and no difference is found. However, I'm not sure if the sequence added by the SVF file (see step 1) is mandatory or not.

Have you follow the MAX10 configuration userguide?

I cannot find anything in the MAX10 configuration user guide or in other documents. We followed the BSDL 1532 and another document your colleague sent us "MAX10_programming_spec_Ver6.pdf - 16S-29647 04" (by the way, is there a new version available?). We are only interested in the JTAG programming flow as a third party programmer.

We do not support SVF or JAM formats, but only POF format. The programming algorithm must then be developed by us and we are focusing on all the steps added in the SVF file. Is there a document that expains how to convert a POF into a SVF file for MAX 10 devices? Is it described in a file in the qprogrammer directory in a human readable format?

Best Regards,

Luca
