Fast Passive Parallel Configuration

Figure 9–5 shows the timing waveform for an FPP configuration when using a
MAX II device or microprocessor as an external host. This waveform shows timing
when you enable the decompression, the design security features, or both.

Notes to Figure 9–5:
(1) Use this timing waveform when you use the decompression and/or design security features.
(2) The beginning of this waveform shows the device in user-mode. In user-mode, nCONFIG, nSTATUS, and CONF_DONE are at logic high levels. When
nCONFIG is pulled low, a reconfiguration cycle begins.
(3) After power-up, the Arria II GX device holds nSTATUS low for the time of the POR delay.
(4) After power-up, before and during configuration, CONF_DONE is low.
(5) Two DCLK falling edges are required after CONF_DONE goes high to begin the initialization of the device.
(6) If required, you can pause DCLK by holding it low. When DCLK restarts, the external host must provide data on the DATA[7..0] pins prior to
sending the first DCLK rising edge.
(7) Do not leave DCLK floating after configuration. You can drive it high or low, whichever is more convenient.
(8) DATA[7..1] are available as user I/O pins after configuration. The state of these pins depends on the dual-purpose pin settings. For Arria II GX
devices, DATA[0] is a dedicated pin that is used for both the PS and AS configuration modes and is not available as a user I/O pin after
configuration. For Arria II GZ devices, DATA[0] is available as a user I/O pin after configuration.
