Dear,
I recently became aware about the notification about degrading transceiver performance in Stratix 10 and Arria 10 Devices when the device remains unprogrammed.
Also see:
According to the notification clause B the device shall not remain unprogrammed for a cumulative period of less than one year. Does this mean that the device may not be in a powered and unprogrammed state or is this also applicable for the unpowered state ?
All the Best,
Andre
Hi Andre,
I understand that you are referring to ADV2116.
According to A10 user guide doc (page 398, chapter 3.8. Unused/Idle Clock Line Requirements)
- https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/hb/arria-10/ug_arria10_xcvr_phy.pdf
- Unused or idle transceiver clock lines can degrade if the devices are powered up to normal operating conditions and not configured.
- So unpowered FPGA should not be affected by this issue.
Thanks.
