Is this the case? Signal Tap only supported for FPGAs instead of CPLDs (eg MAX V).

Seen in a Video that ELA only works with FPGA designs and not CPLDs because of the availability of memory in Intel FPGA devices. It stated need available LBs to implement the Logic Analyzer itself + Memory blocks to store/capture data samples.
