Selects the width of the data interface between the transaction layer and the application layer implemented in the FPGA fabric, and the lane rate.

Select the following elements:

Lane data rate:
  • Gen3, Gen4 and Gen5 are supported.
Lane width:
  • x16, x8 and x4 are supported.

Some of these configurations are only available in devices with the suffix R2 or R3 in their OPN number. For more details, refer to Avalon Streaming Interface Data and Header Bus Widths per Port.

Port Mode

Specifies the port type.
Note:

To operate the IP in TLP Bypass mode, choose either the Downstream or Upstream Port Mode.

500 MHz (for Gen5 modes)

500 MHz / 300 MHz (for Gen4 and Gen3 modes, the default frequency depends on whether the IP is in double-width or single-width mode)

Select the frequency of the Application clock. The options available vary depending on the setting of the Hard IP Mode parameter.

For Gen5 modes, the available clock frequencies are 500 MHz / 475 MHz / 450 MHz / 425 MHz / 400 MHz.

For Gen4 and Gen3 modes, the available clock frequencies depend on whether the IP is in double-width or single-width mode. For more details, refer to IP to FPGA Fabric Interface Summary.

Enable SRIS Mode True/False False

Enable the Separate Reference Clock with Independent Spread Spectrum Clocking (SRIS) feature.

Enable CVP (INTEL VSEC) True/False False When set, this parameter enables CVP for a single tile only.

This option provides lane to lane TX deskew per grouping based on topologies.

For example, if the 2x8 topology is selected, the EMIB is deskewed per every eight EMIB channels. This results in two sets of deskew markers, deskew errors, etc.
