3.2. Configuring MAX® 10 Devices using JTAG Configuration

The Quartus® Prime software generates a .sof that you can use for JTAG configuration. You can directly configure the MAX® 10 device by using a download cable with the Quartus® Prime software programmer.

Alternatively, you can use the JAM Standard Test and Programming Language (STAPL) Format File (.jam), JAM Byte Code File (.jbc), or Serial Vector Format (.svf) with other third-party programming tools. You can either:

  • Auto-generate these files
  • Manually convert them using Quartus® Prime Programmer
