8 Programming Recommendations

To ensure successful programming, the following guidelines are recommended:

  • Authenticate the bitstream before programming the device.
  • Do not assert the reset pin (DEVRST_N) during programming because this may corrupt the device configuration.
  • Use the correct configuration and programming interface based on the selected programming mode.
  • Configure the device I/O states (before JTAG programming) based on the design requirements. For more information, see I/O States During Programming.
