Figure 3. Stratix V Hard IP Variants Support Configuration via PCI Express
Interlaken PCS Hard IP
Stratix V devices have integrated Interlaken PCS hard IP supporting up to 24 channels at up to 14.1 Gbps.
It is based on the soft IP proven in Stratix IV GX devices to interoperate with Interlaken ASSP vendors
and third-party IP suppliers. The Interlaken PCS hard IP is present in every transceiver channel in the
Stratix V GX, GT, and GS devices.
10G Ethernet Hard IP
Stratix V GS, GT, and GX devices include IEEE 802.3 10-Gbps Ethernet (10GbE) compliant 10GBASE-R
PCS and PMA hard IP. The Ethernet PHY with the embedded 10.3125 Gbps serial transceivers completes
the 10GbE solution. The scalable 10GbE hard IP supports multiple independent 10GbE ports while using
a single PLL for all the 10GBASE-R PCS instantiations which saves core logic resources and clock
networks.
The 10G integrated transceivers simplify multi-port 10GbE systems as compared with XAUI interfaces
that require an external XAUI to 10G PHY. Further, the integrated 10G transceivers incorporate Electronic
Dispersion Compensation (EDC) which enables direct connection to standard 10 Gb XFP and SFP+
pluggable modules. Additionally, the 10G transceivers support backplane applications. The integrated
10G transceivers save external PHY cost, board space and system power.
The 10G Ethernet PCS hard IP is present in every transceiver channel in Stratix V devices.
Variable Precision DSP Block
Signal processing applications increasingly demand not only higher performance but also higher
precision – and indeed different precision levels make sense at different stages of the signal processing
data paths. For example, video broadcast applications can use multipliers ranging from 9x9 to all the way
up to 18x18. Other applications such as wireless and medical systems push the precision needs even
further as they develop complex, multi-channel filters with the need to maintain data precision after each
stage of the filter. Then there are applications within the military, test and high-performance computing
industries that push the envelope in terms of both performance and precision – sometimes even requiring
the need for single/double precision floating point when implementing complex matrix operations and
FFTs.
