I’m have a major issue with Quartus and their LVDS interface for the Arria 10. I’m trying to use an external PLL to drive both RX and TX LVDS channels and am getting this error message: "error_message" : "matched_atom == 0".

Problem Details

Error:

Internal Error: Sub-system: CUT, File: /quartus/db/cut/cut_atom_util.cpp, Line: 359

matched_atom == 0
