For installation instructions, general CORE Generator interface known issues, and design tools requirements, see the IP Release Notes Guide: http://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/ip_documentation/xtp025.pdf

For LogiCORE XAUI Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ), see (Xilinx Answer 33596).

Solution

New Features in v9.1
  • 11.3 ISE Design Suite support
  • Virtex-6 Lower Power device support
  • Virtex-6 HXT device support
  • Spartan-6 LXT device support

Resolved Issues in v9.1
  • (Xilinx Answer 33135) LogiCORE IP XAUI v8.2 - Incorrect Virtex-6 FPGA GTX attribute when not using the IEEE state machines

Resolved Issues in v9.1 rev1
  • (Xilinx Answer 33649)LogiCORE XAUI v9.1 and RXAUI v1.1 - Virtex-6 FPGA GTX default setting for TXDIFFCTRL could result in electrical idle condition
  • (Xilinx Answer 34163) - LogiCORE IP XAUI v9.1 - The Spartan-6 FPGA Example Design does not implement the DCM_SP attribute setting for "CLK_FEEDBACK"
  • (Xilinx Answer 34159) - LogiCORE IP XAUI v9.1 - The Virtex-6 FPGA Example Design MMCMs can cause DRC errors
  • (Xilinx Answer 33504) - Spartan-6 FPGA GTP Transceiver: Channel Bonding signals fail timing

Known Issuesin v9.1 rev1
  • Virtex-6 and Spartan-6 device solutions are pending hardware validation.
  • The XAUI core v9.1rev1 was the last version totarget Virtex-6 GTX CES silicon. XAUI v9.2 and later versions of the core support production silicon with production GTX attributes.
  • (Xilinx Answer 24678) - Virtex-4 FPGA GT11 SmartModel Simulation - TX serial output skewed in SimPrims Timing simulation
  • (Xilinx Answer 33486) - LogiCORE IP XAUI v9.1 and RXAUI v1.1 - Update needed for reset logic in block level for Spartan-6 Device GTP and Virtex-6 Device GTX wrappers
  • (Xilinx Answer 33488) - LogiCORE IP XAUI v9.1 and RXAUI v1.1 - Virtex-6 FPGA GTX powerdown reset logic should be updated
  • (Xilinx Answer 33489) - LogiCORE IP XAUI v9.1 and RXAUI v1.1 - Timing Simulation Timeouts seen in Virtex-6 FPGA Example Design
  • (Xilinx Answer 33491) - LogiCORE IP XAUI v9.1 - Timeout seen in Spartan-6 FPGA Example Design Timing Simulation
  • (Xilinx Answer 33492) - LogiCORE IP XAUI v9.1 - Implementing Spartan-6 and Virtex-6 FPGA Examples Designs results in MAP errors for some device packages
  • (Xilinx Answer 33386) - 11.3 CORE Generator - Licenses for certain free cores are now included in the software install
  • (Xilinx Answer 36228) - LogiCORE IP XAUI v9.1 and v9.1 rev1 - Virtex-6 GTX_POWER_SAVE needs to be updated to target ISE 12.2
