40-100GbE MAC and PHY IP Core Fails Attempted Update to Quartus II Software v13.1 Arria 10 Edition

Description

Designs that contain a 40- and 100-Gbps Ethernet Mac and PHY IP core fail the IP upgrade process in the Quartus II software v13.1 Arria 10 Edition. This IP core does not support the Arria 10 device family.

Resolution

To avoid this issue, you must remove the 40-100GbE IP core from your design before upgrading to the 13.1 Arria 10 Edition of the Quartus II software.

This issue will be fixed in a future version of the 40- and 100-Gbps Ethernet MAC and PHY MegaCore function or in a related future MegaCore function.
