Figure 16: Dynamic Reconfiguration Options for Stratix and Stratix GX Devices
The following table lists the dynamic reconfiguration options using scan chains.
Table 12: Dynamic Reconfiguration Options for Stratix and Stratix GX Devices
Description
Option
This option enables all the PLL reconfiguration ports for this instantia-
tion—
scanclk
,
scanaclr
,
scandata
, and
scandataout
.
Create optional inputs for dynamic
reconfiguration
This option lets you specify the following types of scan chain to be used
in the PLL reconfiguration:
• Long chain—Specifies that you are using PLLs 5 and 6 with PLL
reconfiguration. PLLs 5 and 6 have six logic array outputs and four
external clock outputs and therefore, have a longer reconfiguration
chain.
• Short chain—Specifies that you are using PLLs 11 and 12 with PLL
reconfiguration. PLLs 11 and 12 have only six logic array outputs
with no dedicated external clock output counters and are considered
the shorter reconfiguration chain PLLs.
Which scan chain type will you be
using?
For devices that use the normal dynamic reconfiguration scheme, the parameter settings are located on the
PLL Reconfiguration page of the ALTPLL parameter editor.
The following figure shows the normal dynamic configuration scheme options that uses configuration files.
