-	 * excerpt from an Altera configuration manual:
-	 *
-	 * The low-to-high transition of nCONFIG on the FPGA begins the configuration cycle. The
-	 * configuration cycle consists of 3 stages�reset, configuration, and initialization.
-	 * While nCONFIG is low, the device is in reset. When the device comes out of reset,
-	 * nCONFIG must be at a logic high level in order for the device to release the open-drain
- 	 * nSTATUS pin. After nSTATUS is released, it is pulled high by a pull-up resistor and the FPGA
-	 * is ready to receive configuration data. Before and during configuration, all user I/O pins
-	 * are tri-stated. Stratix series, Arria series, and Cyclone series have weak pull-up resistors
-	 * on the I/O pins which are on, before and during configuration.
-	 *
-	 * To begin configuration, nCONFIG and nSTATUS must be at a logic high level. You can delay
-	 * configuration by holding the nCONFIG low. The device receives configuration data on its
-	 * DATA0 pins. Configuration data is latched into the FPGA on the rising edge of DCLK. After
-	 * the FPGA has received all configuration data successfully, it releases the CONF_DONE pin,
-	 * which is pulled high by a pull-up resistor. A low to high transition on CONF_DONE indicates
-	 * configuration is complete and initialization of the device can begin.
