dynamic configuration issue of fpll from arria 10

Hi, all

   quartus ip : quartus 191

   IP : fpll

  operation mode : fraction mode

  For change the frequency of fpll:

  I modify c0/m/n/k, after configure these register , then use register to reset and re-calibrate fpll.

  I found that:(during simulation)

  1) if there's no m change, though k value is changed, the fpll could not synthesis the new frequency;

    workaround : I must change m to another value then change it back, then update k value; the fpll could synthesis the new frequency; I don't know why. it's so strange.

 2) Though there's workaround solution, but I found that sometimes, previous and current  k value has large difference(for example ,previous value is 32'h98dbc000 , current value is 32'h5b110000), but the fpll could not provide correct frequency. How could I resolve this issue? Or which way will I  need to try?

Best Regards,

Lambert

I made sure I have written all register correctly through reading the related register after write. And I found  that 1st k value, 2ed k value has same frequency; 3rd value, 4th value has another same frequency; 1st and 2ed k value is diff; 3rd value and 4th value is diff. Update frequency is 861us.

Hi,


Have you try to use the latest Quartus to see if the issue is still observed? Is this only happen in simulation or it is also observed in hardware?

Hi,

   Now I only have tried the quartus 191 and only did the simulation,  I will check this IP using quaruts 24.

I tried quartus 242, and I met the same issue.

Hi,

   Just because I could not send our project to you(I have limited authority). I could only present my implementation step.

   1. Configure fpll to one default frequency;

    2. During simulation, use fixed M count, and continue to adjust K count. (gap about 800 us).

         Use same N and C0 count;

        For the dynamic configuration: 

        1. configure C0;

         2. configure M

         3, configure N;

          4. configure K

          5. power down to do reset and re-calibration

     

     Or maybe could you help provide one example, and I could try it at my side, thanks

 

Best Regards

And I found that when I use the quartus 242 to re-generate or re-design the fpll, the simulation model all belongs to quartus 191, why?

  fpga type: arria 10 10ax115n2f45e1sg.
