Due to a problem in the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software version 22.4, the Ethernet Multirate Intel® FPGA IP with PTP enabled on port 1 will not align the RX Timestamp interface signal with the RX Start of Packet indication. This problem affects the following Reconfiguration Group configurations:
Client Interface: MAC Avalon Streaming Interface with PTP Enabled
PMA Type |
Reconfig group |
Operating Ethernet mode profile |
Affected Interface Signals |
FGT |
100GE-2 Reconfigurable |
10/25GE-1 |
Valid o_p1_ptp_rx_its [95:0] not aligned to o_rx_startofpacket[1] |
FHT |
100GE-2 Reconfigurable |
10/25GE-1 |
Valid o_p1_ptp_rx_its [95:0] not aligned to o_rx_startofpacket[1] |
Client Interface: MAC Segmented with PTP Enabled
PMA Type |
Reconfig group |
Operating Ethernet mode profile |
Affected Interface Signals |
FGT |
100GE-2 Reconfigurable |
10/25GE-1 |
Valid o_p1_ptp_rx_its [95:0] not aligned to SOP on o_rx_mac_inframe[2] |
FHT |
200GE-2 Reconfigurable |
50GE-1 |
Valid o_p1_ptp_rx_its [95:0] not aligned to SOP on o_rx_mac_inframe[5:4] |
To work around this problem, you should delay the RX data interface by (5) i_clk_rx clock cycles for the 10/25GE-1 profiles or (2) i_clk_rx clock cycles for the 50GE-1 profile.
This problem is fixed beginning with the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software version 23.1.
