MAX10 10M04CE using FIR IP

Hi we have a new board design that uses a 10M04CE device. We are experimenting with functionality. We would like to implement an FIR filter and have tried to create one using the FIR II IP in the Qua...

Yes, but the MAX10 CE "compact" FPGA's cannot do memory initialisation from FLASH. Which means if you try and create an FIR IP instance with any default coefficients defined the project won't build. So ideally what is needed is the ability to just set the number of coefficients, with no default initialisation, and allow these coefficients to be set during runtime. Or is there a workaround for this?

Without something like this the current FIR IP cannot be used on a MAX10 CE "compact" FPGA.
