2.3.9. Configuration File Format Differences
For typical configurations in Agilex™ 5 devices, the first section of the bitstream contains SDM firmware up to a maximum of 2 MB followed by sections for I/O, Hard Processor System (HPS), and FPGA core configurations.
You have the option to compress the configuration bitstream with Cyclone® V devices. However, Agilex™ 5 devices automatically compress the configuration bitstream.
Cyclone® V and Agilex™ 5 devices support the following configuration file formats:
- Raw Binary File (.rbf) via JTAG interface for Agilex™ 5 devices but not for Cyclone® V
- Programmer Object File (.pof)
- JTAG Indirect Configuration (.jic)
- Raw Programming Data (.rpd)
- Jam Standard Test and Programming Language (STAPL) (.jam)
- Jam Byte Code (.jbc)
