Arria 10 AS x4 Mode

[Fresh_Leon]

Dear, Sir

We know that AS x4 mode and x1 mode can be configured by MSEL pin.

x4 and x1 AS mode share the same MSEL pin.

Question is: how does FPGA know it should boot with x1 bit width or x4 bit width ?

Hello,
please avoid cross-posting of the same question in multiple forums.

x4 AS mode is set in the configuration stream, specified in Quartus Device and Pin Options. Configuration read starts always in x1 mode. If x4 mode setting is found in the image, the configuration logic switches to x4.
