Decompression Engine
Enhanced configuration devices support decompression. Configuration data compressed QuartusII software stored enhanced configuration device. During configuration, decompression engine inside enhanced configuration device will decompress expand data. This feature increases effective configuration density enhanced configuration device Mbits EPC4, EPC8, EPC16, respectively. enhanced configuration device also supports parallel data reduce configuration time. However, some cases, data transfer limited Flash data transfer rate. With parallel programming mode (when DCLK frequency MHz), data output bandwidth faster than data input bandwidth reading from Flash. Because configuration time depends ratio data bits read bandwidth used, compression will improve configuration time. decompression engine decompresses configuration data before sending configuration unit (PCU) configuration.
Configuration Unit

Unused data pins drive low. addition transmitting data PLD, responsible delaying DCLK whenever there insufficient decompressed data, i.e., when waiting decompression engine decompress data. This technique called "Pausing DCLK." manages CONF_DONE error detection logic. CONF_DONE error occurs when de-asserted within certain number clock cycles after last data transmitted PLD. When CONF_DONE error detected, asserts signals unit, which asserts start re-configuring PLD. This done only when auto-restart configuration upon frame error option enabled software.

Preliminary Information
Upon power-up, unit generates reset signals. unit resets enhanced configuration device's control units using 10-MHz default internal clock main clock source. After counter expires, unit de-asserts holding low, time extended. Upon start configuration process, device samples PGM[] select pins determine which page configuration files Flash memory should used configuration. will switch internal clock clock settings according option setting. device starts read Flash configuration data. When goes high, starts DCLK configures PLD. When last configuration data bits have been read from Flash memory, page counter expires stops reading from Flash memory. error detected CONF_DONE, DCLK will continue toggling until goes high, indicating successful configuration cycle. CONF_DONE error detection detects error, unit will assert start reconfiguration. After configuration process complete, stops DCLK. keep Flash memory idle state, device enables pull-ups, pulldowns, and/or bus-keepers Flash interface pins.
Programming Mode
During mode, JTAG interface accesses Flash memory. controller processes instructions access Flash memory through JIU. After receiving instruction, decodes instruction performs necessary Flash cycle. programming mode, interfaces with initiate reconfiguration cycle. When JTAG interface takes bus-mastership, starts reconfigure PLD. During configuration, JTAG interface should used, using interfere with configuration. After re-configuration cycle successfully completed, asserts CONF_DONE high. Upon this assertion, DCLK drives low, DATA[7:0] remains last logic state.

External Flash Memory Interface
EPC16 configuration devices, unused memory portion main block (i.e., memory that used configuration file) used external source such microprocessor PLD. This external source uses unused Flash memory store application codes. address, data, control ports Flash memory internally connected enhanced configuration device controller external device pins. external source drive these external device pins access Flash memory when interface Flash available, (i.e., when controller accessing Flash memory). When controller accesses Flash memory while configuring programming enhanced configuration device, processor must tristate Flash interface pins avoid contention.

When using external source (processor PLD) access Flash memory, following considerations should made:
User cannot force enhanced configuration device's controller relinquish Flash access external source (processor PLD). external source (processor PLD) must wait until configuration complete, when CONF_DONE goes high, before accessing Flash memory. Auto_Restart configuration option enabled corrupted programming data Flash memory, enhanced configuration devices will continuously configure PLD. such cases, external source (processor PLD) cannot access Flash memory until valid programming file downloaded enhanced configuration device. external source (processor PLD) cause configuration process restart releasing control interface then toggling nCONFIG. Because sharing causes contention during in-system programming configuration, external flash interface signals cannot shared between multiple enhanced configuration devices. controller chips inside EPC16 devices actively accessing flash memory during this time, causing contention external flash interface pins. Therefore, enhanced configuration devices support shared flash interfaces.

Note Description
These pins address input Flash memory read write operations. addresses internally latched during write cycle. These pins Data that interface with Flash memory controller. controller external source drives DQ[15:0] during Flash command data write cycles. During data read cycle, Flash memory drives DQ[15:0] controller. When asserted, activates Flash memory. When high, deselects device reduces power consumption standby levels. When asserted, resets Flash memory. When high, enables normal operation. When low, inhibits write operation Flash memory, which provides data protection during power transitions. controller asserts this during Flash read cycles. When asserted, enables drivers Flash output pins. controller asserts during Flash write cycle. When asserted, controls writes Flash memory. Flash memory, addresses data latched rising edge pulse. This usually tied ground board. controller does drive this because could cause contention. Block erase, full chip erase, word write, lock configuration power supply. Flash asserts this when write erase operation complete. This Flash only pin.

Description
Allows snapshot state enhanced configuration device pins captured examined during normal device operation permits initial data pattern output device pins. Allows external circuitry board-level interconnections tested forcing test pattern output pins capturing results input pins. Places 1-bit bypass register between pins, which allow data pass synchronously through selected device adjacent devices during normal device operation. Selects device IDCODE register places between TDO, allowing device IDCODE serially shifted TDO. device IDCODE enhanced configuration device shown below: 0100A0DDh Selects USERCODE register places between TDO, allowing USERCODE serially shifted TDO. 32-bit USERCODE programmable user-defined pattern. This function initiates re-configuration process tying nINIT_CONF PLD(s) nCONFIG pin(s). After this instruction updated, nINIT_CONF released starts configuration. This function asserts nINIT_CONF before accessing Flash memory, external PLD/processor connected Flash. This avoids Flash contention when both JTAG/ISP external PLD/processor want access Flash. Before JTAG/ISP access Flash, external PLD/processor needs reset asserting nINIT_CONF, which puts external PLD/processor "reset" state waits de-assertion INIT_CONF.
