Avalon-ST
The Avalon-ST configuration scheme is a passive configuration scheme. Avalon-ST is the fastest configuration scheme for Intel
Agilex devices. Avalon-ST configuration supports x8, x16, and x32 modes. The x16 and x32 bit modes use general-purpose
I/Os (GPIOs) for configuration. The x8 bit mode uses dedicated SDM I/O pins.
Note:

Avalon-ST supports backpressure using the
incoming bitstream varies, backpressure support is necessary to transfer data to the Intel Agilex device. For more information
about the Avalon-ST refer to the Avalon Interface Specifications.
JTAG
You can configure the Intel Agilex device using the dedicated JTAG pins. The JTAG port provides seamless access to many
useful tools and functions. In addition to configuring the Intel Agilex, you use the JTAG port for debugging with Signal Tap or
the System Console tools.

Before you can use CvP you must configure either the periphery image or full image configuration via the AS scheme. Then you can
configure the core image using CvP.
