1.1. Features

The Intel® FPGA Serial Flash Loader IP core allows you to:
  • Configure your FPGA and program your serial configuration devices using the same JTAG interface.
  • Correctly interpret extra padding bits introduced by third-party programmer tools to ensure successful serial configuration device programming using the Use enhanced mode SFL parameter.

Extended Features for Intel® Arria® 10 and Intel® Cyclone® 10 GX Devices

The Intel® FPGA Serial Flash Loader IP core supports Intel® Arria® 10 and Intel® Cyclone® 10 GX devices with the following features:

  • Multiple serial configuration devices—up to three cascaded identical serial configuration devices can be used to store a single configuration file.
  • Multiple-die serial configuration devices—up to four stacked-die serial configuration device can be used to store a single configuration file.
  • Boot page selection—specify the boot page for design multiple SRAM object file (.sof).
