10.4.8. Dynamic Reconfiguration
Each channel and each TX PLL have separate dynamic reconfiguration interfaces. The MegaWizard Plug-In Manager provides informational messages on the connectivity of these interfaces. The following example shows the messages for a single duplex channel parameterized for the 1.25 GIGE protocol.
Although you must initially create a separate reconfiguration interface for each channel and TX PLL in your design, when the Intel® Quartus® Prime software compiles your design, it reduces the number of reconfiguration interfaces by merging reconfiguration interfaces. The synthesized design typically includes a reconfiguration interface for at least three channels because three channels share an Avalon-MM slave interface which connects to the Transceiver Reconfiguration Controller IP Core. Conversely, you cannot connect the three channels that share an Avalon-MM interface to different Transceiver Reconfiguration Controller IP Cores. Doing so causes a Fitter error.
Informational Messages for the Transceiver Reconfiguration Interface
PHY IP will require 2 reconfiguration interfaces for connection to the external reconfiguration controller. Reconfiguration interface offset 0 is connected to the transceiver channel. Reconfiguration interface offset 1 is connected to the transmit PLL.
Signal Name | Direction | Description |
---|---|---|
reconfig_to_xcvr [( <n> 70-1):0] | Input | Reconfiguration signals from the Transceiver Reconfiguration Controller. <n> grows linearly with the number of reconfiguration interfaces. |
reconfig_from_xcvr [( <n> 46-1):0] | Output | Reconfiguration signals to the Transceiver Reconfiguration Controller. <n> grows linearly with the number of reconfiguration interfaces. |
