Discussion - Hardware / FT601 on Cyclone V GX
« on: November 27, 2018, 02:11:06 PM »
Hi,
I am considering using the FT601 chip with Cyclone V GX FPGA. I have purchased the Cyclone V GX starter kit and UMFT601A USB3 kit. Now I am trying to synthesize the provided examples to be used with the kit on Quartus Prime ver 17. I have noticed that all the examples have timing constrains violations if synthesized for 7 speed grade FPGA which is installed on the GX kit. I was only able to remove timing violations if I choose 6 speed grade chip, but it is not the chip which is used on the Altera/Intel kit.
Is there something wrong with the examples?
Thanks,
Alexey.
