New ContributorUpgrade Altera MAX10m08 over SPI
Super ContributorHi,
As mention in Max 10 configuration userguide(refer page 13),
There are two methods to access remote system upgrade in Intel MAX 10 devices:
• Dual Configuration Intel FPGA IP core
• User interface
Kindly refer to below userguide for more information:

New ContributorHi Aiman,
After looking at the document you have provided, this is the conclusion I have reached.
The FPGA part we are using (Max10M08 Compact) does not support the remote system upgrade. The two options you provided (Dual Configuration) and User Interface will not work.
The part we are using is Compact, and from the above snippet from the datasheet, there are no RSU option for Compact.
Another part of the document also verifies this that compact does not have remote system upgrade capability. Moreover, from the above table, since the compact only has a single configuration image, I don't see how we can do remote upgrade to the internal flash.
It looks like the only option we have left is to upgrade this part over JTAG. Please let me know if I have stated incorrect information or I have missed something that might allow me to do remote system upgrade on this part.
Thanks
Nabeel
