Agilex5 SmartVID

[AlexKucherov]

Hello Intel team

We use SmartVID for the  Agilex 5 in master mode,

The interface between Agilex and voltage regulator is glueless and SDM manage the interface as below

I found the following instructions to program the NVM parameters,

Is the Agilex (SDM) support the NVM configuration?

Or Intel expected the NVM be configured before implementing on board

Please advise

Thanks

Hi,

Altera expect that the NVM to be programmed correctly before installing it on board

Thanks John,

Is it applied to both, Master and Slave mode?

So the voltage regulator is not standard device? it should be special Part Number - configured by the device manufacture. - Right?

Thanks

Hi Asaf,

Yes, you are correct. As this NVM setting is set only once.

Thanks.

Can the SmartVID work without the Limits setting and without the error Flag?

Thanks

Is the NVM configured demand, is applies only when using voltage regulator that are not listed in the GUI by selecting the "Other" option in the Quartus® Prime software? or is it for all regulators?

Thanks

Hi Asaf,

It is good to make sure all regulators is set correctly on the NVM setting.

Thanks
