3.5.2. Adding the F-Tile Reference and System PLL Clocks Intel® FPGA IP

The transceivers require a separately instantiated F-Tile Reference and System PLL Clocks to generate the transceiver and system PLL reference clock.

In your IP design, you must include an F-Tile Reference and System PLL Clocks Intel FPGA IP core to pass logic generation flow. The F-Tile Reference and System PLL Clocks Intel FPGA IP must always connect to a protocol based Intel FPGA IP. The F-Tile Reference and System PLL Clocks Intel FPGA IP cannot be compiled or simulated as a standalone IP. For more information on parameters and port list for F-Tile Reference and System PLL Clocks Intel FPGA IP core, refer to the F-Tile Architecture and PMA/FEC Direct PHY IP User Guide.

SYS PLL configuration for F-Tile 25G Ethernet Intel FPGA IP:
  • Mode of System PLL: ETHERNET_FREQ_805_156
  • FGT Refclk frequency: 156.25 MHz
