8 years agoI would respond you didn't read (or understand) what I've written :
The flash feature (that I've perfectly understood) does not interest me and is not the reason I've chosen the MAX10. The flash memory existence is irrelevant with the lack of documentation for programming the device. I can program the flash or the CRAM in a similar way, it doesn't matter. What are these apples and oranges I compare ? As I wrote twice, I don't use the Cyclone series because of the available packages (and it is much more expensive). Of course, I would choose this kind of chip if a TQFP version is available, do you think I'm this dumb !? You know, people can choose some stuff for reasons that are not what the marketing decided on the first place. And, to be honest, the MAX10 "specific feature" is risible, I don't see any real added value here. The MAX10 is much more specific (and interesting) because of its package related to the logic elements number than this dull flash feature. All I search for is a powerful enough FPGA with TQFP package. Only Altea (and perhaps Lattice) has something reasonable. I don't care about whistles and bells, only standard programming and reasonable documentation. Jerome.
