Why does the F-Tile PMA/FEC Direct PHY FPGA IP variant with the “RS-FEC Mode” parameter is set to either “FlexO RS(544,514) or “FlexO RS(528,514)” fail to simulate properly? - Why does the F-Tile PMA/FEC Direct PHY FPGA IP variant with the “RS-FEC Mode” parameter is set to either “FlexO RS(544,514) or “FlexO RS(528,514)” fail to simulate properly?
Description Due to a problem in the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software version 24.3, the F-Tile PMA/FEC Direct PHY IP variant with the “ RS-FEC Mode ” parameter set to either “ FlexO RS(544,514) " or " FlexO RS(528,514) ” will fail to simulate correctly. In simulation, the “ rsfec_sf ”, “ rsfecstatus_rx_not_align ”, and “ rsfec_status_rx_not_locked ” ports of the IP will always be 1’b1. This problem does not affect the operation of the IP in hardware. Resolution To workaround this problem in Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software version 24.3, add the following compile option to the simulation script for your selected simulator: +define+ SKIP_SIM_MODEL_LOG2_MRK For example, if using the QuestaSim* simulator, add the following line to the simulation script: set USER_DEFINED_VERILOG_COMPILE_OPTIONS "+define+ SKIP_SIM_MODEL_LOG2_MRK" This problem is scheduled to be fixed in a future release of the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software.
