8.7.4. Estimating the Active Serial Configuration Time
The AS configuration time is mostly the time it takes to transfer the configuration data from an EPCS or EPCQ device to the Stratix® V device.
Use the following equations to estimate the configuration time:
- AS x1 mode
.rbf Size x (minimum DCLK period / 1 bit per DCLK cycle) = estimated minimum configuration time.
- AS x4 mode
.rbf Size x (minimum DCLK period / 4 bits per DCLK cycle) = estimated minimum configuration time.
Compressing the configuration data reduces the configuration time. The amount of reduction varies depending on your design.
