Hello,

I have a related question; how to use UFM for device configuration.

I am just gathering information regarding this and as per AN-631, UFM allows this, saving board space & design cost.

My questions are..

1) How could I program the UFM with the POF file. Or do I need the SOF file?

2) What utility in Quartus II allows this. The 'Programmer' utility?

3) Do I need to use any of the ALTUFM mega-functions? It seems they are meant to use the UFM as an I2C, SPI devices but not to store the configuration bit file.

Help is appreciated. Thanks
