Why do I see the Errors in data transmission of the GTS PMA/FEC Direct PHY FPGA IP for PMA configuration rules set to CPRI with Fiber Channel RS(528,514) Forward Error Correction (FEC) enabled?

Environment

  • Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition
  • Interfaces
  • BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT

    Critical Issue

    Description

    Due to a problem in the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software version 24.2, when using the GTS PMA/FEC Direct PHY FPGA IP with the configurations shown below, errors will be observed in data transmission,

    PMA configuration rules --> CPRI

    FEC mode --> Fiber Channel (FC) RS(528,514) Forward Error Correction (FEC) 

    Data Rate --> 10G

    Resolution

    This problem is planned to be fixed in a future release of the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software.
