With SRAM-based devices EPC1064, configuration data must be reloaded each time the system initializes, or when new configuration data is needed. Altera configuration devices store configuration data for SRAM-based APEX II, APEX 20K, Mercury, ACEX, and FLEX devices. Table 1 lists Altera configuration devices.
