Transceiver Qsys generation through script

How to generate transceiver PHY IP through script without using GUI?

Is there any option to configure the transceiverdata rate and phy pll output frequency through qsf changes or script without opening GUI.

    Hi,

    As I understand it, you have some inquiries related to XCVR PHY IP generation without using GUI. Based on my understanding, we would need to use IP Catalog to generate the XCVR PHY IP. I am not aware of specific flow to generate the PHY using script. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    As for the XCVR data rate change, not sure if you are referring to dynamic rate change during user mode. If yes, you may perform dynamic reconfiguration to perform rate change. Note that the data rate and frequency cannot be set through QSF. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Hi,

    I could use ip-deploy command and change the required settings of phy.

    Thanks.

    Thanks for your update and sharing. Glad to hear that you have managed to achieve that. Should you encounter any issue when using the command, you may use the workaround of using IP Catalog. Thank you.
