Virtex-6 Integrated Block Wrapper for PCI Express- PCI Express link will not train on ML605 boards using ES silicon

描述

Version Found: v2.1, v1.4
Version Resolved and other Known Issues: See (Xilinx Answer 45723).

If I use the v1.4 or later versions of theIntegrated Block Wrapper for PCI Express, the ML605 board with ES (engineering sample) silicon does not reliably train, which causes the system not to recognize the card.

解决方案

ML605 boards with Virtex-6 FPGA CES (Engineering Sample) siliconmust use the v1.3 rev 2 Integrated Block Wrapper for PCI Express available in ISE 12.1and later software versions. The rev 2 patch is available from (Xilinx Answer 36552) and fixes issues with linking up and implementation.

Later versions of the Integrated Block Wrapper for PCI Express (v1.4 and later) only work on Virtex-6 FPGA Production grade silicon and can be used on ML605 boards that have production silicon. For more information about the Integrated Block Wrapper for PCI Express releases, see the Release Notes found in the IP Release Notes Guide (XTP025): http://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/ip_documentation/xtp025.pdf

To identify if your ML605 board has CES or Production silicon, use iMPACT to read the IDCODE back of the silicon and you should see one of the following:

iMPACT output fromCES Silicon

'2': IDCODE is '24250093' (in hex).
'2': : Manufacturer's ID = Xilinx xc6vlx240t, Version : 2

iMPACT output fromProduction Silicon

'2': IDCODE is '44250093' (in hex).
'2': : Manufacturer's ID = Xilinx xc6vlx240t, Version : 4
