Table 1-4: 40GbE IP Core FPGA Resource Utilization in Stratix V and Arria V GZ Devices
Lists the resources and expected performance for selected variations of the 40GbE IP cores in an Arria V GZ or
Stratix V device. The results were obtained using the Quartus II software v13.1 for a Stratix V 5SGXEA7N2F45C2
device.
• Top-level modules are in bold.
• The numbers of ALMs and logic registers are rounded up to the nearest 100.
• The numbers of ALMs, before rounding, are the ALMs needed numbers from the Quartus II Fitter Report.
