7.2.1. Using the DS Tool

To implement dual simplex mode in Agilex™ 5 devices, you must use the Dual Simplex (DS) Assignment Editor to create a dual simplex group.

To create a dual simplex group, you must first create an independent simplex TX IP (with one or more channels) and an independent simplex RX IP (with one or more channels) and subsequently use the Dual Simplex Assignment Editor to fit them into the duplex channel.

To create a dual simplex group:

  1. Load DS Assignment Editor, create the instance, and save the assignments. The assignments will be updated in qsf file.
    Note: To use DS Assignment Editor, you need to run IP Generation first to display the simplex IPs.
  2. Run the DS Group Generation and the DS group will be generated in quartus folder.
  3. Replace sdi_rx and sdi_tx module instantiation with the DS group generated. Set the input and output ports accordingly by referring to the sdi_tx and sdi_rx.
  4. Proceed with compilation.
