MAX10 ADC doesn't start during power on

I'm using MAX10 ADC to measure on board voltages. The ADC IP operates normally when the design was programmed using JTAG USB Byte Blaster with SOF file. When same design is programmed using POF fil...

Hi Alex,

Here is interesting part of this problem. When you program the part using POF, the part restarts itself using the POF file. Based on the other development boards, the part does restart after the POF configuration. This behavior excludes the possibility of power up sequence issue. This remains whether there is enough current for transient during the configuration from POF. From the power management user guide, it states that 680mA is maximum power transient current. Can transient current can cause ADC IP configuration to fail?

Thanks,

K
