Key Features
- Complete PCIe Protocol Stack in Hard IP – Full implementation of Transaction, Data Link, and Physical Layers with PIPE mode support.
- Broad PCIe Version Support – Native PCIe 4.0/3.0 with seamless down-training to 2.0/1.0.
- Flexible Port & Mode Options – Root Port, Endpoint, TL-Bypass, SR-IOV (8 PFs, 2K VFs), and bifurcation support.
- High Performance Data Handling – Up to 512B Maximum Payload Size (MPS), 4KB Maximum Read Request Size (MRRS), and extended 10-bit tag support for hundreds of outstanding transactions.
- Versatile User Interfaces – Avalon-ST, AVMM, segmented packet interfaces, and support for simultaneous TLP handling.
- Configuration & Partial Reconfiguration Over PCIe – Supports CVP Init / Update and Partial Reconfiguration (PR) over PCIe link.
- Robust System Integration – Supports multiple clocking modes (Common/Independent Reference Clock (refclk) with and without Spread Spectrum SRIS, SRNS), Precision Time Management (PTM), and power states (D0/D3).
- Enhanced Reliability & Debug – Advanced Error Reporting, Debug toolkit: detailed protocol/link status, PMA register access, and eye viewing capability.
- Complementary IP Ecosystem – Seamless integration with PCIe Scalable Switch IP and MCDMA IP (Avalon-ST, Avalon-MM interfaces).
- Comprehensive Software Support – Ready-to-use Linux device drivers, plus Windows device drivers (Stratix 10 only) via Jungo partner for faster deployment.
