(2) Altera recommends using a balanced star routing. Keep the N length equal and as short as possible to minimize
Estimating AP Configuration Time
AP configuration time is dominated by the time it takes to transfer data from the
parallel flash to Cyclone IV E devices. This parallel interface is clocked by the
Cyclone IV E DCLK output (generated from an internal oscillator). The DCLK
minimum frequency when using the 40-MHz oscillator is 20 MHz (50 ns). In
word-wide cascade programming, the DATA[15..0] bus transfers a 16-bit word and
essentially cuts configuration time to approximately 1/16 of the AS configuration
time.
