Features
New features in the Quartus
®
II 14.1 software release:
• Reduced Quartus II compilation warnings by 50%.
The Stratix V Hard IP for PCI Express with the Avalon-MM interface supports the following features:
• Complete protocol stack including the Transaction, Data Link, and Physical Layers implemented as
hard IP.
• Support for ×1, ×2, ×4, and ×8 configurations with Gen1, Gen2, or Gen3 lane rates for Root Ports and
Endpoints.
• Dedicated 16 KByte receive buffer.
• Optional hard reset controller for Gen2.
• Optional support for Configuration via Protocol (CvP) using the PCIe link allowing the I/O and core
bitstreams to be stored separately.
• Support for 32- or 64-bit addressing for the Avalon-MM interface to the Application Layer.
• Qsys example designs demonstrating parameterization, design modules, and connectivity.
• Extended credit allocation settings to better optimize the RX buffer space based on application type.
• Optional end-to-end cyclic redundancy code (ECRC) generation and checking and advanced error
reporting (AER) for high reliability applications.
• Support for Configuration Space Bypass Mode, allowing you to design a custom Configuration Space
and support multiple functions.
• Support for Gen3 PIPE simulation.
• Easy to use:
• Flexible configuration.
• No license requirement.
• Example designs to get started.
