Instead of using an external flash or ROM, you can configure the Cyclone® V devices through PCIe using CvP. The CvP mode offers the fastest configuration rate and flexibility with the easy-to-use PCIe hard IP block interface. The Cyclone® V CvP implementation conforms to the PCIe 100 ms power-up-to-active time requirement.

18 The partial reconfiguration feature is available for Cyclone V E, GX, SE, and SX devices with the "SC" suffix in the part number. For device availability and ordering, contact your local Intel® sales representatives.
