2. Design Example Description

The F-Tile Avalon-ST IP for PCI Express Design Example is a simple design to demonstrate the establishment of PCIe connectivity of F-Tile FPGA in Intel® Quartus® Prime. The design performs write and read sequences from the host processor to the target device through PCIe Intel® Quartus® Prime Hard IP. The Programmed Input/Output (PIO) application block is needed to handle the translation from PCIe TLP to AVMM protocol.

Note: Design examples only support the default settings in the Parameter Editor of the F-Tile Avalon Streaming IP for PCI Express.
Note: Design examples do not support 10-bit tag completer feature. Running the design example on host machine enforce 10-bit tag at PCIe Gen4, can cause completion timeout or system crashed.
