Chapter 9: Configuration, Design Security, and Remote System Upgrades in the Cyclone III Device Family
Remote System Upgrade
The control register bit positions are shown in Figure 9â36 and listed in Table 9â27. In
the figure, the numbers show the bit position of a setting in a register. For example, bit
number 35 is the enable bit for the watchdog timer.

When enabled, the early CONF_DONE check (Cd_early) option bit ensures that there is a
valid configuration at the boot address specified by the factory configuration and that
it is of the proper size. If an invalid configuration is detected or CONF_DONE pin is
asserted too early, the device resets and then reconfigures the factory configuration
image. The internal oscillator, as startup state machine clock (Osc_int) option bit,
ensures a functional startup clock to eliminate the hanging of startup when enabled.
When all option bits are turned on, they provide complete coverage for the
programming and startup portions of the application configuration. It is strongly
recommended that you turn on both the Cd_early and Osc_int option bits.
1 The Cd_early and Osc_int option bits for the application configuration must be
turned on by the factory configuration.

Remote System Upgrade Status Register
The remote system upgrade status register specifies the reconfiguration trigger
condition. The various trigger and error conditions include:
â Cyclical redundancy check (CRC) error during application configuration
â nSTATUS assertion by an external device due to an error
