Max10 Board Design Question

Question

Hello,I want to design an FPGA board using a Max10 FPGA device. I prefer to use a 10M02SCU169C8G device or similar because I do not need a lot of logic resources. I am very familiar with PCB design and FPGA programming but never designed an FPGA board before.Could you suggest a good place to start. What I need is a hardware design guide or a reference design for Max10 devices.Datasheet given by Intel does not have any information on hardware design aspects.https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/hb/max-10/m10_datasheet.pdfBest regards,Buddika

Hello dlim,Thank you very much for the answer. From where can I find a datasheet that provide information specific to 10M02SCU169C8G chip? For example I want to find which pins are power, I/O, GND and JTAG of the particular chip and package. All I could find was a generic datasheet for the Max 10 family https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/hb/max-10/m10_datasheet.pdfBest regards,Buddika
