Performance and Resource Utilization
Table 4–3 shows the typical expected device resource utilization for selected
configurations using the current version of the Quartus II software targeting a
Stratix V GT (5SGTMC7K2F40C2) device. The numbers of ALMs and logic registers in
Table 4–3 are rounded up to the nearest 100. Resource utilization numbers reflect
changes to the resource utilization reporting starting in the Quartus II software v12.1
release 28 nm device families and upcoming device families.
f For information about Quartus II resource utilization reporting, refer to Fitter
Resources Reports in the Quartus II Help.
Parameterizing the 10GBASE-KR Ethernet PHY
This section describes the parameters to customize the 10GBASE-KR PHY IP Core.
The IP variant allows you specify either the Backplane-KR or 1Gb/10Gb Ethernet
variant. When you select the Backplane-KR variant, the Link Training (LT) and Auto
Negotiation (AN) tabs appear. The 1Gb/10Gb Ethernet variant (1G/10GbE) does not
require LT and AN parameters.
1 This chapter describes the 10GBASE-KR PHY. Refer to 1G/10 Gbps Ethernet PHY IP
Core for the 1Gb/10Gb Ethernet variant.
Complete the following steps to configure the 10GBASE-KR PHY IP Core in the
MegaWizard Plug-In Manager:
1. For Which device family will you be using?, select Arria V GZ or Stratix V from
the list.
2. Click Installed Plug-Ins > Interfaces > Ethernet > 1G10GbE and 10G BASE-KR
PHY v12.1.
3. Use the tabs on the MegaWizard Plug-In Manager to select the options required
for the protocol.
