Intel: Fitter Error when creating a 5Gbps design with Cyclone® V Native PHY. Please tell me the reason.
Category: Walkie Talkie
Tools: Quartus® Prime
Device: Cyclone® V
Datarate: 5000Mbps, FPGA fabric: 10bit, "Parallel clock frequency = 500MHz > Allowable value in Datasheet" is causing an error.
The parallel clock of Transceiver -> FPGA Fabric has frequency limitations as follows.

Calculate the specific parallel clock frequency by A÷B.
(A) Data rate
(B) FPGA fabric / Standard TX, RX PCS interface width
The error can be avoided by increasing the bandwidth of the FPGA Fabric.
