1.7. P-Tile IP for PCI Express IP Cores v9.0.0

IP versions are the same as the Quartus® Prime Design Suite software versions up to v19.1. From Quartus® Prime Design Suite software version 19.2 or later, IPs have a new IP versioning scheme.

The IP version (X.Y.Z) number may change from one Quartus® Prime software version to another. A change in:
  • X indicates a major revision of the IP. If you update your Quartus® Prime software, you must regenerate the IP.
  • Y indicates the IP includes new features. Regenerate your IP to include these new features.
  • Z indicates the IP includes minor changes. Regenerate your IP to include these changes.

Quartus® Prime Version Description Impact
22.4 New information for the Eye Margin Mask is available in the P-Tile Avalon Streaming Intel FPGA IP for PCI Express User Guide for Gen3 and Gen4 with BER 1e-9 and BER 1e-12. You must manually compare your Eye Margin values in your Debug Toolkit against the Margin Mask defined in the P-Tile Avalon Streaming Intel FPGA IP for PCI Express User Guide.
