Configuration Files
There are two types of configuration bit stream formats for different configuration schemes:
•
•
PS and FPP—Raw Binary File (.rbf)
AS—Raw Programming Data File (.rpd)
The .rpd file size follows the Altera configuration devices capacity. However, the actual configuration bit stream size for .rpd file is the same as .rbf
file.
Table 82: Configuration Bit Stream Sizes for Arria 10 Devices—Preliminary
Use this table to estimate the file size before design compilation. Different configuration file formats, such as a hexadecimal file (.hex) or tabular text file
(.ttf) format, have different file sizes.
For the different types of configuration file and file sizes, refer to the Quartus Prime software. However, for a specific version of the Quartus Prime
software, any design targeted for the same device has the same uncompressed configuration file size.

To enable CLKUSRas the initialization clock source, turn on the Enable user-supplied start-up clock (CLKUSR) option in the Quartus Prime
software from the General panel of the Device and Pin Options dialog box.
If you use the CLKUSRpin for AS and transceiver calibration simultaneously, the only allowed frequency is 100 MHz.
