Q1. As per the resource utilization of Etile Ethernet Hard IP , can you suggest a lower device in Stratix 10 that can verify the IP. Since we are planning to do a custom board , we are looking for an optimal FPGA for the Ethernet design.
Ans: As per my understanding according your question, you want to implement the E-tile Hard IP on Stratix 10 devices. I would suggest you to use either Stratix 10 TX or Stratix 10 MX devices to implement the E-tile Hard IP on Stratix 10 board.
Q2. Also do we need to purchase the license for using ETile Ethernet Hard IP.
Ans: When the evaluation time expires for any licensed Intel FPGA IP in the design, the
design stops functioning. All IP cores that use the Intel FPGA IP Evaluation Mode time
out simultaneously when any IP core in the design times out. When the evaluation
time expires, you must reprogram the FPGA device before continuing hardware
verification. To extend use of the IP core for production, purchase a full production
license for the IP core.
You must purchase the license and generate a full production license key before you
can generate an unrestricted device programming file. During Intel FPGA IP Evaluation
Mode, the Compiler only generates a time-limited device programming file (<project
name>_time_limited.sof) that expires at the time limit.

New ContributorHi Zi Ying ,
Thanks for the reply.
Is it possible to share the resource utilization of the example design in the Intel Stratix 10 TX Transceiver Signal Integrity Development Kit that uses Etile Ethernet Hard IP ?
Regarding the license of E-Tile Ethernet Hard IP , i would like to know whether the IP is licensed ? In the datasheet its written as "the IP core is included in the Intel FPGA IP Library and is available from the Intel Quartus® Prime Pro Edition IP Catalog. "
We understood that if its a licensed IP , purchase of the license is required . If its included free with the Quartus tool, the license purchase is not required. Could you please confirm whether the E-Til Hard IP is a licensed IP? Since the name is hard IP , we would like to confirm the whwthere its free or a licensed IP.
Regards
