Can not upgrade ethernet related outdated IP in quartus prime standard 21.1 tool

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 linkhttps://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 But there are still two IP remain outdated as i don't find the way to upgrade it and those are mentioned below.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,

Nirmal soni

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
