A10 PCIe Device not seen by Windows

As shown in SigTap snapshot below, there is an extra pulse of app_nreset_status at sample 61. When this happens, the PCIe device does not enumerate correctly in Windows.

I also have a dump of raw data values for capture below if that helps.

Any ideas what could cause this extra reset to be issued?

Thanks.

    Hi,


    May I know which device family you are using? Could you share the stp file?


    Thanks.

    Hi,


    May I know what is the speed and link width you are trying to achieve? Could you check if the power supply (VCCR_GXB) is set correctly in the Assignment editor and measure the power supply (VCCR_GXB) supplied to FPGA board is matched with voltage set in the design setting?


    Thanks

      PCIe Core mode is set to: Gen3 X2, 128bit, 125MHz

      VCCR_GXB is 1.03V when measured on the board (pins J19 and J20).

      I don't see where these pins (J19 and J20) are called out in the assignment editor, where are these located?

      Thx.

    Hi,


    You may set the assignment using the pin planner or assignment editor


    For Pin Planner


    1. Right-click on a blank area in the All Pins list and select Customized Columns
    2. Select VCCR_GXB / VCCT_GXB Voltage from Available Columns and click the> button
    3. Make sure it is added to the All Pins list and select the transceiver pin voltage you want to change


    ■ For Assignment Editor


    1. Register the corresponding XCVR pin name in the To field
    2. Select VCCR_GXB / VCCT_GXB Voltage in the Assignment Name field
    3. Select the voltage of the corresponding XCVR pin


    From the Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) for Arria 10 PCIe Link Up Issue

    https://community.intel.com/t5/FPGA-Wiki/FTA-PCI-express/ta-p/735993, I believe you are at Is rx_std_signaldetect asserted (Hypothesis 4). Can you try the suggestions in FTA_Table_View (No 4)?


    If the suggestions in the FTA are not helpful, could you try to run at lower speed and see if this is a problem running at Gen3?


    Thanks

    Best regards,
