Can not upgrade ethernet related outdated IP in quartus prime standard 21.1 tool

[Nirmal_soni]

Hello,

I am trying to run below mentioned demo on MAX10 Development Kit provided by intel.

Demo link: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/design-example/714819/max-10-single-port-triple-speed-ethernet-and-on-board-phy-chip-design-example.html

I am referring below mentioned user guide to test it.

User guide link: https://www.intel.com/content/dam/altera-www/global/en_US/uploads/a/af/MAX10_TSE_On-board_PHY_Design_Example_User_Guide.pdf

The demo was prepared in quartus prime standard 18.0 version and i am using quartus prime standard 21.1 so, to compile this demo i need to upgrade required IPs for quartus prime standard 21.1.

After upgrading IPs that support auto upgrade I also upgraded some IPs manually by editing qsys_top.qsys file. But there are still two IP remain outdated as i don't find the way to upgrade it and those are mentioned below.

• Ethernet Packet Generator(eth_gen). 
• Ethernet Packet Monitor(eth_mon).

For details about above IPs: Refer user guide page no:6,7 and 9.

So, if you could provide me a way through which i could upgrade those IPs then that would be really helpful to me.

Thank you,

And one more thing!

In example design they have not provided one folder name "sc_tcl" as this folder would have .tcl file for testing the design from System Console according to user guide.

 Could you help me to know how i could get those .tcl files as it will required for testing purpose.

For details: Refer user guide page no.20 step 7.

Thank you.

Hi Nirmal,

Good day.

The require IP upgrade will be listed automatically. I don't think you've to upgrade anything other than listed don the IP Upgrade list.

Kindly share with me if its stated the upgrade is required in your Quartus. I will debug it further.

And regarding the sc_tcl files, it's auto-generated files from example design.

Regards,

Pavee
