Configuration Devices

During operation, Altera^® FPGAs store configuration data in SRAM cells. Because SRAM memory is volatile, the SRAM cells must be loaded with configuration data each time the device powers up. Altera configuration devices (PDF) are used to store configuration data and configure Altera FPGAs.
