Description

Use 62.5 MHz

application clock

On/Off

This mode is only available only for Gen1 ×1.

Enable configu‐

ration via PCI

Express (CvP)

On/Off

When On, the Quartus II software places the Endpoint in the

location required for configuration via protocol (CvP). For

more information about CvP, click the Configuration via

Protocol (CvP) link below.

Use ATX PLL

On/Off

When enabled, the Hard IP for PCI Express uses the ATX PLL

instead of the CMU PLL. For other configurations, using the

ATX PLL instead of the CMU PLL reduces the number of

transceiver channels that are necessary. This option requires

the use of the soft reset controller and does not support the

CvP flow.

Enable Hard IP

reset pulse at

power-up when

using the soft

reset controller

On/Off

When On, the soft reset controller generates a pulse at power

up to reset the Hard IP. This pulse ensures that the Hard IP is

reset after programming the device, regardless of the behavior

of the dedicated PCI Express reset pin,

perstn

. This option is

available for Gen2 and Gen3 designs that use a soft reset

controller.

64-bit prefetchable memory

32-bit non-prefetchable memory

32-bit prefetchable memory

I/O address space

Defining memory as prefetchable allows data in the

region to be fetched ahead anticipating that the

requestor may require more data from the same

region than was originally requested. If you specify

that a memory is prefetchable, it must have the

following 2 attributes:
• Reads do not have side effects

• Write merging is allowed
The 32-bit prefetchable memory and I/O address

space BARs are only available for the Legacy

Endpoint.
