1.7. Intel FPGA SerialLite III Streaming IP Core v17.1

Table 7.  v17.1 November 2017
Description Impact
Added support for Stratix® 10 devices. New features include:
  • 28 Gbps data rate with x1 lane and 25 Gbps data rate with x2 lane .
  • Basic and full streaming mode.
No simplex receiver mode support for more than 17.4 Gbps data rate in Stratix® 10 devices. Simplex receiver mode for greater than 17.4 Gbps data rate in Stratix® 10 is planned to be supported in future release.

In previous versions of the Intel FPGA SerialLite III Streaming IP core design example] for Arria® 10 devices, the IOPLL and transceiver PLL output may experience additional jitter. The additional jitter occurs if you source the reference clock from a cascaded PLL output, global clock, or core clock. To compensate for the jitter, the designs required additional constraints. This issue has been fixed in Quartus® Prime version 17.1.

If you are migrating earlier designs with these additional constraints to Quartus® Prime version 17.1, refer to the How to I compensate for the jitter of PLL cascading or non-dedicated clock path for Arria 10 PLL reference clock? KDB link for more information.

SerialLite III Streaming IP core in Stratix® 10 devices does not support Riviera™-Pro 2017.02 simulator. You may use Riviera-Pro simulator prior to 2017.02 version.
