New ContributorIntel Stratix 10 GX Ethernet Hard IP
Hi Aravind,
Apologize but I couldn't give a confirmed answer on your query as its out of my expertise. But I would suggest that it will better to re-evaluate the board design again. I guess even though its 0.09V voltage change, it might have some impact.
You may need to discuss with your board designer to determine if it still meet the spec since the datarate also become faster.

Frequent ContributorHi Aravind,
Based on your description, I believe that you're planning to use Intel Stratix 10 FPGA with H-tile. But based on H-tile Ethernet Hard IP User Guide, I don't think transceiver speed grade -3 is supported.
The H-tile Ethernet Hard IP core supports Intel Stratix 10 H-tile devices with these speed grade properties:
• Transceiver speed grade: -1 or -2
The H-Tile Hard IP for Ethernet Intel FPGA IP core supports 50 Gbps and 100 Gbps Ethernet data rate.
My suggestion is why don't you try to use E-Tile Hard IP where it does support 10G Ethernet rate with transceiver speed grade -3.
Kindly have a look E-Tile Hard IP user guide. I believe E-Tile suits your requirement well compared to H-Tile unless you have specific reason to choose H-Tile.

New ContributorHi Pavee,
Yes, E - Tile Stratix 10 suits our requirement very well.
But we are planning to reuse the schematic design which is already there, that's why we thought of changing only the Tile specification alone.
If we go with H-Tile speed grade -1 or -2, can we use Ethernet Hard IP for 10G speed (with 1 pair of TX and RX ) ?
If it is possible means it will save lot of design time for us!
Kindly provide your valuable suggestion!
Thanks & Regards ,
Aravind
