Simulation stalls when global_reset_n is toggled early in Intel® Arria® 10 FPGA DDR4 PHY-Only IP simulation

BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
Description

When performing a functional simulation with the Intel® Arria® 10 FPGA DDR4 PHY-Only IP, toggling the global_reset_n early in the simulation might stall the sequencer resulting in afi_cal_success or afi_cal_fail never asserting.

This is a problem with simulation only and does not affect the hardware function.

Resolution

As a workaround, apply a global_reset_n pattern similar to that generated by the altera_avalon_reset_source block in the DDR4 simulation design example.
