3.3. Specifying the IP Core Parameters and Options

The 1G/2.5G/5G/10G Multi-rate Ethernet PHY Intel® FPGA IP parameter editor allows you to quickly configure your custom IP variation. Use the following steps to specify IP core options and parameters in the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software:
  1. In the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software, click File > New Project Wizard to create a new Intel® Quartus® Prime project, or File > Open Project to open an existing Intel® Quartus® Prime project. The wizard prompts you to specify a device.
  2. In the IP Catalog (Tools > IP Catalog), locate and double-click 1G/2.5G/5G/10G Multi-rate Ethernet PHY Intel FPGA IP core to customize. The New IP Variant window appears.
  3. Specify a top-level name for your custom IP variation. The parameter editor saves the IP variation settings in a file named <your_ip> .ip.
  4. Click Create. The parameter editor appears.
  5. Specify the parameters for your IP core variation in the parameter editor. Refer to Table 14 for information about specific IP core parameters.
  6. Optionally, to generate a MAC+PHY simulation testbench or compilation and hardware design example, follow the instructions in the F-Tile Low Latency Ethernet 10G MAC Intel® FPGA IP Design Example User Guide.
  7. Click Generate HDL. The Generation dialog box appears.
  8. Specify output file generation options, and then click Generate. The IP variation files generate according to your specifications.
  9. Click Finish. The parameter editor adds the top-level .ip file to the current project automatically. If you are prompted to manually add the .ip file to the project, click Project > Add/Remove Files in Project to add the file.
  10. After generating and instantiating your IP variation, make appropriate pin assignments to connect ports.
