6.8. Trying a Different PCB

If you are using the same Altera FPGA IP on several different hardware platforms, determine whether the problem occurs on all platforms or just on one.

Multiple instances of the same PCB, or multiple instances of the same interface, on physically different hardware platforms may exhibit different behavior.

  1. Determine if the configuration is fundamentally not working, or if some form of marginality is involved in the problem.
  2. If the IP is from a previous project to help save development resources, determine whether the specific IP configuration works on a previous platform.
