This chapter enumerates the differences between the ALTGX megafunction for use 
with Stratix IV GX devices and the protocol-specific transceiver PHYs for use with 
Stratix V GX devices in the current release. It includes the following topics:

■

Dynamic Reconfiguration of Transceivers

XAUI PHY

PHY IP Core for PCI Express PHY (PIPE)

Dynamic Reconfiguration of Transceivers

This section covers dynamic reconfiguration of transceivers in Stratix V and Stratix IV 
devices. Dynamic reconfiguration interface is completely new in Stratix V devices. 
You cannot automatically migrate a dynamic reconfiguration solution from Stratix IV 
to Stratix V devices.

Dynamic Reconfiguration for Stratix V Transceivers 

Stratix V devices that include transceivers must use the Altera Transceiver 
Reconfiguration Controller that contains the offset cancellation logic to compensate 
for variations due to PVT. Initially, each transceiver channel and each TX PLL has its 
own parallel, dynamic reconfiguration bus, named 

reconfig_from_xcvr[45:0]

 and

 

reconfig_to_xcvr[69:0]

. The reconfiguration bus includes Avalon-MM signals to 

read and write registers and memory and test bus signals. When you instantiate a 
transceiver PHY in a Stratix V device, the transceiver PHY IP core provides 
informational messages specifying the number of required reconfiguration interfaces 
in the message pane as 

Example 11–1

 illustrates. 

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 
reconfigurations 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. 

Dynamic Reconfiguration for Stratix IV Transceivers 

Stratix IV devices that include transceivers must use the ALTGX_RECONFIG IP core 
to implement dynamic reconfiguration. The ALTGX_RECONFIG IP core always 
includes the following two serial buses:

■

reconfig_from[

<n>

16:0]

— this bus connects to all the channels in a single quad. 

<n> 

is the number of quads connected to the ALTGX_RECONFIG IP core. 

Example 11–1. Informational Messages for the Transceiver Reconfiguration Interface

PHY IP will require 5 reconfiguration interfaces for connection to the external 
reconfiguration controller.
Reconfiguration interface offsets 0-3 are connected to the transceiver channels.
Reconfiguration interface offset 4 is connected to the transmit PLL.
