User Guide

■

You must ensure that the

gxb_cal_blk_clk

input and

gxb_powerdown

signals are

connected according to the requirements for your target device family.

■

You must ensure that a single calibration clock source drives the

gxb_cal_blk_clk

input to each CPRI IP core (or any other megafunction or

user logic that uses the ALTGX megafunction).

■

When you merge multiple CPRI IP cores in a single transceiver block, the same
signal must drive

gxb_powerdown

to each of the CPRI IP core variations and

other megafunctions, Altera IP cores, and user logic that use the ALTGX
megafunction.

■

You must ensure that the instances each have different starting channel numbers.

Multiple CPRI IP cores in a single device must use distinct transceiver channels.
You enforce this restriction by specifying different starting channel numbers for
the distinct CPRI IP cores. Refer to

Chapter 3, Parameter Settings

.

■

To configure multiple CPRI IP cores in a single transceiver block, you must specify
in your Quartus Settings File (.qsf) that these CPRI link data lines are configured
in the same

GXB_TX_PLL_RECONFIG_GROUP

, using the following syntax for each

outgoing CPRI link

cN_gxb_txdataout

:

set_instance_assignment -name GXB_TX_PLL_RECONFIG_GROUP 1 -to cN_gxb_txdataout
