Description Due to a bug in the Quartus® II software, a design that has LVDS SERDES IP core configured in TX mode and RX Soft-CDR mode assigned to the same I/O bank in an Intel® Arria® 10 device will fail at the fitter stage. This is because the phase-locked loop (PLL) instances within the two IP cores will not be correctly merged by the Quartus® II software. Therefore different PLLs will be required for the different LVDS SERDES IP cores. Each I/O bank has only one I/O PLL though. This problem only affects the RX Soft-CDR configuration. RX Non-DPA or RX DPA-FIFO configurations are not affected. Note that the Triple Speed Ethernet IP core uses LVDS SERDES IP configured in RX Soft-CDR mode.
