Quartus II Programmer 11.1

Quartus II Programmer is a development tool which allows you to add your programming and configuration files, specify programming options and hardware, and then proceed with the programming or configuration of the device.
If the Quartus II Programmer automatically detects devices with shared JTA Programmer prompts you to specify the correct device in the JTAG chain.

The Quartus II Programmer supports five configuration modes, including JTAG, passive serial (PS), active serial (AS), Configuration via Protocol (CvP), and in-socket
modes (ISM).

The Quartus II software can generate optional programming or configuration files in various formats that you can use with programming tools other than the Quartus II Programmer. When you compile a design in the Quartus II software, the Assembler automatically generates either a .sof or .pof. The Assembler also allows you to convert FPGA configuration files to programming files for configuration devices.
