Can PCIe IP compiler be used with external Phy?

I'd like to implement a PCIe endpoint using a Cyclone V E FPGA and an external PCIe phy (TI XIO1100). Looking through an old users guide for Altera's "IP Compiler for PCI Express" it looks like thi...

Hi,

Apologize for late reply,

you can not use the PCI Express Hard IP with an external PHY.

as instead, you can use PCI Express soft IP in order to incorporate an external PHY.

Detail you can refer

Hope this help.

Hi Wincent,

Yes, that's the IP that I've been asking about. Is it still available? That document is from 2007 and there's no mention of this IP core on the Intel web site any longer.

How do I get this IP core?

Thanks,

Steve
