Agilex 5 IOPLL Max Numbers and Tool Display Mismatch

Hello everyone

Let me discuss the title.

[Question]

What is the maximum number of IOPLLs (Bank IOPLLs, Fabric Feeding IOPLLs, and perspective of whether System PLL can be used for other purpose ) on an A5EC008BB32AE5S, both device wide and bank/block wise?

In particular, I would like to know the official opinion on how Quartus Pro Edition (Fitter/Report) and Power and Thermal Calculator count the upper limit on IO96B (HSIO) banks and the upper limit on HVIO blocks.

Please check the attached file for details.

Best Regards

    Interal response below:

    Looking at the device dump, I can confirm the SM4 device has 11 IO PLLs. It is safe to ignore the 25.1 report. 

    You may ignore the report.

      Thank you for your support.
      I understood that v25.1 report of PLL numbers can be ignored in this case.

      I would like to close the ticket. Please let us know how to do.

      Could lease check it.

       

      I understand that I will make a separate thread about PTC.
