Intel® Quartus® Prime Design Suite 21.4 |
IP Version 3.1.0 |
The F-Tile Interlaken Intel® FPGA IP core provides a simulation testbench and a hardware design example that supports compilation and hardware testing. When you generate the design example, the parameter editor automatically creates the files necessary to simulate, compile, and test the design.
The testbench and design example supports NRZ and PAM4 mode for F-tile devices. The F-Tile Interlaken Intel® FPGA IP core generates design examples for the following supported combinations of number of lanes and data rates.
Number of Lanes | Lane Rate (Gbps) | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
6.25 | 10.3125 | 12.5 | 25.78125 | 53.125 | |

Figure 1. Development Steps for the Design Example
The F-Tile Interlaken Intel® FPGA IP core design example supports the following features:
- Internal TX to RX serial loopback mode
- Automatically generates fixed size packets
- Basic packet checking capabilities
- Ability to use System Console to reset the design for re-testing purpose

1 This variant supports the Interlaken Look-aside Mode.
2 For a 10-lane configuration design, the F-tile requires 12 lanes of TX PMA to enable bonded transceiver clocking for minimizing the channel skew.
