Crash while compiling simple project for MAX V.

[ricardoluz]

I'm starting a new project, and did a simple top file.

When I try to compile it I get a crash error.

The report:

Tried googling it, and I don't get any information.

I never used an FPGA of this family.

I think the problem might be somewhere in the assigment of the pins.

Namely of the differential ones, because if i comment them it compiles without any crashes.

In previous designs with different devices, I used the primitive ALT_OUTBUF_DIFF whenever i need to output LVDS, but now it tells me it is not supported.

I tried using the megafunction ALTLVDS_TX, with a deserialization of 1 but the crash is still there.

These are the assignments:

What do you think I might be doing wrong?

Cheers,

Can you use the latest release of Quartus Prime 19.1?

Do you have a bunch of output ports that are stuck GND  and had assigning to an LVDS I/O standard?

[Kenny_Tan]

Any update?

[ricardoluz]

Hi Kenny, sorry for not answering sooner.

It is not solved. However, in the end the output were not suppose to be LVDS (miscommunication with my team). I change them to single ended (LVTTL 3.3), and the crash stoped.

Cheers.

[Kenny_Tan]

Thanks,

Yes, this problem occur because of the LVDS I/O standard was assign incorrectly. It was suppose to give an error rather than crash. I will file a documentation/kdb on this.

I'm having similar issues on a MAX V 5M160ZE64I5 device. I can compile and fit a design when I assign an output pin on bank 2 to 2V5. When I change it to LVDS_E_3R Quartus crashes. I'm using Quartus 20.1 Lite. I'm assigning the pin (txdata) in the pin planner to pin 37 (positive diff pair pin) and when I set it to LVDS_E_3R the pin planner creates the txdata(n) pin on pin 36 which is correct. It sets the IO Standard to LVDS_E_3R. Then when I go back into Quartus and compile it I get the "Sorry! The Quartus Prime software quit unexpectedly." dialog box.

Any ideas? I've only been using Intel devices on this project, previously I have been using the X devices so I'm not sure if it's something I'm doing as a Quartus newb or this is actually a bug.
