You must connect the external reset controller signals and the CPRI v6.0 IP core reset controller interface

signals according to the following rules. Refer to

Integrating Your IP Core in Your Design: Required

External Blocks

on page 2-11 for an illustration of the connections.

• Connect the

tx_digitalreset

,

tx_analogreset

,

tx_ready

,

rx_digitalreset

,

rx_analogreset

,

and

rx_ready

output signals of the reset controllers to the

xcvr_tx_digitalreset

,

xcvr_tx_analogreset

,

xcvr_tx_ready

,

xcvr_rx_digitalreset

,

xcvr_rx_analogreset

, and

xcvr_rx_ready

input signals of the CPRI v6.0 IPcore, respectively.

• Connect the

xcvr_rx_is_lockedtodata

output pin of the CPRI v6.0 IP core to the

rx_is_lockedto-

data

input signal of the RX reset controller.

User logic must provide the connections. Refer to the demonstration testbench for example working user

logic including one correct method to instantiate and connect the external reset controllers.

Adding the Transceiver Reconfiguration Controller

CPRI v6.0 IP cores that target Arria V GZ and Stratix V devices require an external reconfiguration

controller to compile and to function correctly in hardware. CPRI v6.0 IP cores that target Arria 10

devices include a transceiver reconfiguration controller block and do not require an external reconfigura‐

tion controller.
You can use the IP Catalog to generate the Altera Transceiver Reconfiguration Controller IP core.
When you configure the Altera Transceiver Reconfiguration Controller, you must specify the number of

reconfiguration interfaces. The number of reconfiguration interfaces required for the CPRI v6.0 IP core is

two . You can configure your reconfiguration controller with additional interfaces if your design connects

with multiple transceiver IP cores. You can leave other options at the default settings or modify them for

your preference.
You should connect the

reconfig_to_xcvr

and

reconfig_from_xcvr

ports of the CPRI v6.0 IP core to

the corresponding ports of the reconfiguration controller.
You must drive the CPRI v6.0 IP core

reconfig_clk

input port and the Altera Transceiver Reconfigura‐

tion Controller

mgmt_clk_clk

input port from the same clock source. Drive both ports at a clock

frequency in the range of 100–150MHz.
