Known Issues
- Please refer to the release notes text file delivered with the core for known issues at the time of the release.
- The v6.2 solution for PCI-X does not support operation up to 133 MHz in a -1 speedgrade. This is caused by the fact the DCM used in the core to meet timing does not accept frequencies over 120 MHz when using the -1 speedgrade. This problem is currently being investigated and a fix is planned for 9.1i IP Update 3 due out in May 2007.
