B.1. Upgrading a RapidIO Design Without Changing Device Family

To upgrade your RapidIO design that you developed and generated using the RapidIO IP core v16.1, to the IP core v17.0, perform the following steps:
  1. Follow the Intel® FPGA IP upgrade instructions.

    Note the new device support restrictions and the fact that the RapidIO IP core no longer supports Physical layer only variations or external transceivers. To upgrade a RapidIO IP core variation that is no longer supported, you must regenerate it with v17.0 supported parameter values.

  2. Proceed with simulation, adding the RapidIO timing constraints, and compilation.
Note: Before you add the RapidIO timing constraints, use the Assignment Editor to remove the old 0PPM assignments for this IP core. Otherwise, the new 0 ppm settings are not written.
