I'm a IC support engineer. I need to support Altera CPLD(10M08SCU169I7G) to our programmer recently.  

We need to know the POF file format and integrate it in my programming systems. 

How to get the information or document? Thank you.

POF file is a header plus raw binary data. I think there is no such a document. Converting pof to rbf, you can know where is raw binary data area.

If you need a documented file format for programming your best bet is to convert the .pof to a known, published format (like .svf or .jbc).
