Why am I observing .sof generation failure when selecting VSR_MODE_HIGH_LOSS in F-Tile JESD204B IP Design Examples? - Why am I observing .sof generation failure when selecting VSR_MODE_HIGH_LOSS in F-Tile JESD204B IP Design Examples? Description The VSR_MODE_HIGH_LOSS option is available in the dropdown menu of the IP GUI for F-Tile JESD204B IP Design Examples. However, starting from Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Design Software version 25.3, this option is deprecated and no longer supported. With the updated F-Tile firmware starting in Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Design Software version 25.3, VSR_MODE_HIGH_LOSS and VSR_MODE_LOW_LOSS are treated equivalently. As a result, selecting VSR_MODE_HIGH_LOSS for hardware testing (e.g., on a development kit) allows the Design Example to compile successfully, but the SOF generation fails. Resolution Users should select VSR_MODE_LOW_LOSS. This issue is fixed in Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Design Software Version 25.3.1.
