Altera Confidential

The general function of the MAX/MAX II Configuration Controller is as follows:

•

SAFE

button loads the Factory default design (BTS design)

•

SYS_RESETn

button loads user design file located in the page

pointed to by

MPGM(2:0)

SPGM(2:0)

based on

MSEL2

(remote

configuration enable)

•

SAFE

design will be loaded if the User Design fails to load.

•

USER LEDs

are driven through the MAX/MAX II from the Stratix II

•

LOADING LED

blinks during a configuration attempt

•

CONF_DONEn LED

lights when the Factory Default image was

loaded

•

USER LED

lights when a User Design was loaded from any page

•

ERROR LED
