Why does the Quartus® Logic Generation Tool report the TX Equalizer settings as 'Ignored' when creating a Tx-only example design for F-Tile JESD204C IP?

Description

Due to a problem in the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software version 23.4, you may observe the Quartus Logic Generation Tool incorrectly reports the TX Equalizer settings as 'Ignored' when creating a TX-only example design for F-Tile JESD204C IP.

Resolution

To work around this problem, you can manually configure the analog parameter instances in the .qsf file.

set_instance_assignment -name HSSI_PARAMETER "txeq_main_tap=<parameters value>” -to tx_serial_data[*]
set_instance_assignment -name HSSI_PARAMETER "txeq_pre_tap_1=< parameters value >" -to tx_serial_data[*]
set_instance_assignment -name HSSI_PARAMETER "txeq_pre_tap_2=< parameters value >" -to tx_serial_data[*]
set_instance_assignment -name HSSI_PARAMETER "txeq_post_tap_1=< parameters value >" -to tx_serial_data[*]
set_instance_assignment -name HSSI_PARAMETER "txeq_main_tap=< parameters value >" -to "tx_serial_data_n[*]"
set_instance_assignment -name HSSI_PARAMETER "txeq_pre_tap_1=< parameters value >" -to "tx_serial_data_n[*]"
set_instance_assignment -name HSSI_PARAMETER "txeq_pre_tap_2=< parameters value >" -to "tx_serial_data_n[*]"
set_instance_assignment -name HSSI_PARAMETER "txeq_post_tap_1=< parameters value >" -to "tx_serial_data_n[*]"

This problem is fixed beginning with the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software version 24.3.1.
