Where to find SATA/SAS IP for Arria II GX and HardCopy

Altera_Forum · ‎11-28-2009

Hello Everyone,

I just installed Quatus II 9.1. full edition. I tried to use MegaWizard Plug-In Manager to configure SAS/SATA IP for HardCopy or Arria II GX.

In MegaWizard Plug-In Manager page2a, I could not find SAS/SATA from the "Installed Plug-Ins" megafunction list. I can see others like SerialLite, SDI, I/O - ALTGX, etc. explicitly. But there are no explicit items for SAS/SATA. Do the Quartus II 9.0 or earlier version Altera Tools have SAS/SATA?

Thanks for your advices in advance,

Tom

To my knowledge, Altera does not have a SATA IP core.

You can look for 3rd party cores:

Also try www.intelliprop.com - they do SATA and SAS.

I checked both sites; they offer SATA/SAS for Altera.

I like to use Altera Arria II and hardcopy which provide more Serdes pins to help SAS/SATA expander and port multiplier applications...

Thank both of you,

Tom
