This will cause CDR clock input contention at RX in channel 3 or channel 0 after channel reconfiguration if MPLL adjacent to channel 3 or channel 0 is driving other circuitry. Solution: ALTGX_RECONFIG has been updated to protect CRAM setting that is related to clock distribution network from being dynamically reconfigured to fix this issue. After install the patch, ALTGX_RECONFIG MegaFunction design file is required to be regenerated and perform full compilation on the design. Users may continue to use the HEX / MIF file generated prior to the patch installation. This problem will be fixed in future Quartus II software version. 3) Problem: Quartus II does not take into account the RX channel local divider setting in the selection of phase interpolator clock frequency which varies by data rate. This will cause the iCDR to not functioning correctly if a wrong phase interpolator clock frequency is selected. Solution: This patch will provide the fix to select a correct phase interpolator clock frequency based on the data rate and RX channel local divider setting. This problem will be fixed in future Quartus II software version. Caution - You must either have previously installed the Quartus II 10.1 SP1 software or must install the Quartus II 10.1 SP1 software before installing this patch. Otherwise, the patch will not be installed correctly and the Quartus II software will not run properly.
