Hi Dave,

The actual scenario is altera had suggested a override wherein we can use a Stratix V transceiver IP(soft PCS) in a Arria V Gz device. This override will allow us to reach speed more than 10Gbps in Arria V Gz with standard soft PCS(SV soft PCS). The usual Arria V Gz transceiver with Soft PCS(standard) has been limited only till 9.9Gbps. I would like to know if this solution is applicable. Whether one device like Startix IP can be migrated to Arria??
