Hi,
It is described here that for older versions of Quartus, DCFIFO with mixed width which read width is smaller than the write width contains an connection error in design which causes Recovery faults. However, there is not any solution mentioned. I am also facing this issue in a design which I have a DCFIFO fits the properties above and has a aclr signal externally synchronized to the write clock. What should be done if someone is obligated to use older versions of Quartus and facing this problem?
Thanks,
Efe

Which device and Quartus version do you plan to use? I always recommend users to use the latest Quartus version as usually a lot of bug has been fix with latest version.
The post do mentioned that:
This is a bug in the DCFIFO generation for mixed widths when the read side is smaller than the write side, for instance the write side it 256 bits wide and the read side is 16 bits wide. In cases where you are seeing the above, make sure the asychronous reset into the DCFIFO is synchronized to the write side, then change the external reset to be synchronized to the read side clock domain. You will see two recovery violations to the write side aclr synchronization registers and it is OK to false path them.
Isn't the sentence in bold, the workaround provided?
