Direct interface Bus (DIB)

Hi

 

I would like to generate a behavioral model of the DIB for simulation.

 

However, when I create a DIB IP and click on the 'Generate HDL' icon, part of the output files include gibberish instead of regular code.

 

Attach 1 file for example 

 

How can I fix this?

 

FPGA device : 1SM21BHU2F53E2VG (startix 10)

Quartis version : 22.3.0

 

Thank you

Kindly take note that there will be a delay in replying to the forum for this case. Because we have 5 consecutive public holidays but we will try our best to address your question as soon as possible.


Instead of sending us the .txt file, do you mind sending us your *.qar files for us to investigate?

Hi,


That seem to me like an encrypted file generated from PD.

Does this affect you behavior simulation of the DIB?

Let me know any concern on this.

Also,


DIB IP is only used for Intel® Stratix® 10 GX 1SG10M variant.

If you use that device, how can you access to the IP?

The IP is hidden to all devices accept s10 10m.

Let me know we can have a quick call.

Hi

 

My FPGA belong to startix 10 GX family - as I wrote above my device is : 1SM21BHU2F53E2VG 

 

About the simulator ( simvision -cadence)  - I got error since a have encrypted files 

 

And , sure no probelm to a quick call  ( teams ? I'm Intel emploee )

Yes sure,

But do you mind telling me how you instantiate DIB IP?

Is it directly from IP using the device mentioned?

As far as I am concern this IP is solely for 10M S10 device variant and I have double checked that using your device the IP is not available.

Hi ,

 

Thank you for your answer

 

I solved the issue ,  I had to set my simulation tool in the  “generate hdl”  GUI , then Quartus creates all the simulation files

 

regardign your Q

 

But do you mind telling me how you instantiate DIB IP? 

Is it directly from IP using the device mentioned?

 

-I just opened it  from the Quartus IP catalog 

 

 

Thank you

Yes , I have other concern .

 

I have 2 Q about INTEL instructions regarding the DIB architecture :

 

Link : https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/programmable/683142/20-2-19-3-0/reset-architecture.html

 

 1)Quote : "you must track all the dib_ready pins from both dies to determine that both intel Stratix 10GX variants are ready for data transactions"

 

How can I track all the dib_ready pins from both dies ? How DIE0 get the information about “ready” flag from DIE1 ?

 

2)Quote : " The reset of the PL (main reset of the design _ should be released only after all the dib_ready_n from all the used dib instances are low"

 

Why does it relevant the reset of the PL ?

 

Why DIB depends to the PL ?

Hello Yishay,


I can see the concern have been addressed in the email loop. We can follow up from there.
