1.4.1. Downloading and Operating the Design Example
The design example contains an F-Tile JESD204C FPGA IP designs for RX-multilink as well as TX-RX multilink design for hardware testing. This design example is verified using simulation and hardware testing.
Follow these steps to download and operate the design example:
- Download the design example file (.par) from Design Store and restore the design using Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software version 23.2 and above.
- In the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software, click File > Open Project to extract the .par design example.
- Extract the files and folders from the simulation.zip file into simulation folder.
- Follow the instructions in Simulating the Dual Link Design. The explanations of the simulation results are presented in Viewing the Simulation Results.
