Why does the Intel® Stratix® 10 Low Latency 10G Ethernet MAC Example Designs fail to simulate when using NCSim or Xcelium?

Description

The Intel® Stratix® 10 Low Latency 10G Ethernet MAC Example Designs will fail to simulate correctly in either NCSim or Xcelium for the configurations below:

• 10G Base-R
• 1/2.5/10G with 1588
• 10M/100M/1G/2.5G/10G

Resolution

No workaround for NCSim or Xcelium is available.

Please use VCS or ModelSim to simulate this IP core with software version v17.1 or v18.0

The simulation problem when using NCSim or Xcelium is scheduled to be fixed in a future version of Intel Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software.
