PS(Passive Serial) configuration with third part Microprocessor

Question

Hi ,
I want to use a  third part Microprocessor to help FPGA(cyclone10 GX) Configurate in PS(Passive Serial) mode,but I  encounter somes problem.

1. Because, MaxV device have PFL IP on it, PFL can  send uncompressed data to FPFA .
 So, If I want to use a  third part Microprocessor send the configuration data, How can I genarate a correct PS configuration data?
 For example,  I have to check device and pin options in quartus, before generateing   PS configuration data . What options I have to enable  ?

2. How should the MCU send data to the FPGA, after programble a correct PS configuration data in Flash ? 
              
Thanks

Hi,You can refer to Cyclone 10 GX handbook for more information;https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/programmable/683775/current/passive-serial-configuration.htmlRegards,Aiman

Hi, Aiman

We can know PFL IP help Uncompressed Data , the information come from Figure 13 and 14 in Parallel Flash Loader Intel® FPGA IPUser Guide.
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/programmable/683698/21-1-19-1-0/using-enhanced-bitstream-compression.html
Before genarateing configuration data in .hex , we can do some setting  device and pin options in quartus.
But, I don't have PFL IP. Does the setting have to be adjusting ?  
For example, there is a option  called '' Generate compressed bitstreams''  , if I enable it?

Thanks
