5. Development Kits Hardware and Configuration

The Intel Agilex® 7 FPGA F-Series Development Kit only supports ASx4 configuration mode on the board. You need to change the hardware setting and/or re-program system images for the case.

The table below show which configuration mode it supports:
Table 5.  Supported Configuration Mode
SW1 [1:3] MSEL [2:0] Configuration Mode
OFF/ON/ON 001 AS - Fast Mode (Default Setting)
OFF/OFF/ON 011 AS - Normal Mode

Section Content
Configure the FPGA and access HPS Debug Access Port by JTAG
Configure the FPGA device by AS modes (Default Mode)
