Customizing the Cyclone VHard IP for PCI Express IP Core
The parameter editor uses bold headings to divide the parameters into separate
sections. You can use the scroll bar on the right to view parameters that are not
initially visible. Follow these steps to parameterize the Hard IP for PCI Express IP
core:
1. Under the System Settings heading, specify the settings in Table 3–2.
2. Under the PCI Base Address Registers (Type 0 Configuration Space) heading,
specify the settings in Table 3–3.
1 For existing Qsys Avalon-MM designs created in the Quartus II 12.0 or earlier release,
you must re-enable the BARs in 12.1.
For more information about the use of BARs to translate PCI Express addresses to
Avalon-MM addresses, refer to “PCI Express-to-Avalon-MM Address Translation
for Endpoints for 32-Bit Bridge” on page 7–20. For more information about
minimizing BAR sizes, refer to “Minimizing BAR Sizes and the PCIe Address
Space” on page 7–21.
3. For the Device Identification Registers, specify the values listed in the center
column of Table 3–4. The right-hand column of this table lists the value assigned to
Altera devices. You must use the Altera values to run the Altera testbench. Be sure
to use your company’s values for your final product.
