  • Updated the timing diagram in the Hard IP Reconfiguration Interface section.
2021.03.31 21.1 4.0.0
  • Updated the signal descriptions in the Power Management Interface section.
  • Added signals p<n>_cii_vf_num_o[10:0] and p<n>_cii_wr_vf_active_o to the Configuration Intercept Interface (EP Only) section.
  • Updated the description for signal flr_completed_vf_i in the Function-Level Reset (FLR) Interface section.
  • Updated the offsets and address ranges for Table 118 and Table 124 in the Configuration Space Registers Appendix chapter.
  • Added a note in the Top-Level Settings section stating that the independent reset feature will only be supported in a future release of Intel® Quartus® Prime.
2021.02.18 20.4 4.0.0 Replaced pin_perst_n with p<n>_pin_perst_n in the Table in section Signal Tap II Logic Analyzer.
2021.01.19 20.4 4.0.0

Updated the Hard IP Mode options in the Top-Level Settings section.

2020.12.18 20.4 4.0.0

Added Function-Level Reset (FLR) for PF and VF timing diagrams to the Function-Level Reset (FLR) section.

2020.12.14 20.4 4.0.0
  • Added parameters to enable the independent resets for the x8x8 bifurcated mode to the Parameters chapter.
  • Added a note specifying the default value of the Extended Tag field in the Device Capabilities register to the table in the SR-IOV Supported Features List section.
  • Updated the description of the p0_flr_completed_pf_i[7:0] signals in the Function-Level Reset (FLR) Interface (EP Only) section.
  • Updated the table Port Mode Options in TLP Bypass in the Top-Level Settings section to clarify the combinations in which TLP Bypass can be enabled or disabled when multiple ports are available.
  • Updated the directions of signals in the Avalon-ST TX Interface section to match the signal directions in the block symbol.
2020.10.05 20.3 3.1.0
