Dynamic Reconfiguration
As silicon progresses towards smaller process nodes, circuit performance is affected
more by variations due to process, voltage, and temperature (PVT). These process
variations result in analog voltages that can be offset from required ranges. The
calibration performed by the dynamic reconfiguration interface compensates for
variations due to PVT.
For Stratix V devices, each channel and each TX PLL have separate dynamic
reconfiguration interfaces. The parameter editor provides informational messages on
the connectivity of these interfaces.
Example 7–1
shows the messages for a single
duplex channel parameterized for the 1.25GbE protocol.
Although you must initially create a separate reconfiguration interface for each
channel and TX PLL in your design, when the Quartus II software compiles your
design, it reduces the number of reconfiguration interfaces by merging
reconfiguration interfaces. The synthesized design typically includes a
reconfiguration interface for three channels. Allowing the Quartus II software to
merge reconfiguration interfaces gives the Fitter more flexibility in placing transceiver
channels. For more information about transceiver reconfiguration refer to
Chapter 10,
Transceiver Reconfiguration Controller
.
Table 7–22
describes the signals in the reconfiguration interface. This interface uses
the Avalon-MM PHY Management interface clock.
Simulation Files and Example Testbench
Refer to
“Running a Simulation Testbench” on page 1–4
for a description of the
directories and files that the Quartus II software creates automatically when you
generate your Custom PHY IP core.

Refer to the

in creating your own verification environment.
Example 7–1. Informational Messages for the Transceiver Reconfiguration Interface
PHY IP will require 2 reconfiguration interfaces for connection to the external
reconfiguration controller.
Reconfiguration interface offset 0 is connected to the transceiver channel.
Reconfiguration interface offset 1 is connected to the transmit PLL.
