UIB and eSRAM Pins

Note: Intel recommends that you create an Intel® Quartus® Prime design, enter your device I/O assignments, and compile the design. The Intel® Quartus® Prime software will check your pin connections according to I/O assignment and placement rules. The rules differ from one device to another based on device density, package, I/O assignments, voltage assignments, and other factors that are not fully described in this document or the device handbook.

Pin Name Pin Functions Pin Description Connection Guidelines
CLK_ESRAM_[0,1]p Embedded SRAM (eSRAM) Clock Input Dedicated positive high speed differential reference clock pin for eSRAM PLL.

Connect this pin to the positive terminal of an LVDS clock source within the range of 10 MHz to 325 MHz. The frequency selected must match the available options provided in the Intel® Quartus® Prime ESRAM PLL Reference Clock Frequency selection dialog box. Only DC-coupling is supported. The peak-to-peak jitter of this clock must meet or exceed the following jitter requirements for frequency bandwidth from 10 kHz to 1/2 of the frequency chosen:

  • 20 ps peak-to-peak
  • 1.42 ps RMS at 1e-12 BER
  • 1.22 ps at 1e-16 BER

Connect directly to GND if unused.

The input reference clock must be stable and free-running at device power-up for proper PLL calibrations and a successful configuration.

CLK_ESRAM_[0,1]n eSRAM Clock Input Dedicated complement high speed differential reference clock pin for eSRAM PLL.

Connect this pin to the negative terminal of an LVDS clock source within the range of 10 MHz to 325 MHz. The frequency selected must match the available options provided in the Intel® Quartus® Prime ESRAM PLL Reference Clock Frequency selection dialog box. Only DC-coupling is supported. The peak-to-peak jitter of this clock must meet or exceed the following jitter requirements for frequency bandwidth from 10 kHz to 1/2 of the frequency chosen:

  • 20 ps peak-to-peak
  • 1.42 ps RMS at 1e-12 BER
  • 1.22 ps at 1e-16 BER

Connect directly to GND if unused.

The input reference clock must be stable and free-running at device power-up for proper PLL calibrations and a successful configuration.

UIB_PLL_REF_CLK_[00,01]p UIB Clock Input Dedicated positive high speed differential reference clock pin for UIB PLL.

Connect this pin to the positive terminal of an LVDS clock source within the range of 10 MHz to 325 MHz. The frequency selected must match the available options provided in the Intel® Quartus® Prime HBM2 interface PLL Reference Clock Frequency selection dialog box. Only DC-coupling is supported. The peak-to-peak jitter of this clock must meet or exceed the following jitter requirements for frequency bandwidth from 10 kHz to 1/2 of the frequency chosen:

  • 20 ps peak-to-peak
  • 1.42 ps RMS at 1e-12 BER
  • 1.22 ps at 1e-16 BER

You must provide a stable reference clock to this pin before device configuration begins when the high-bandwidth memory (HBM2) IP is included in your design.

Connect directly to GND if unused.

The input reference clock must be stable and free-running at device power-up for proper PLL calibrations and a successful configuration.

UIB_PLL_REF_CLK_[00,01]n UIB Clock Input Dedicated complement high speed differential reference clock pin for UIB PLL.

Connect this pin to the negative terminal of an LVDS clock source within the range of 10 MHz to 325 MHz. The frequency selected must match the available options provided in the Intel® Quartus® Prime HBM2 interface PLL Reference Clock Frequency selection dialog box. Only DC-coupling is supported. The peak-to-peak jitter of this clock must meet or exceed the following jitter requirements for frequency bandwidth from 10 kHz to 1/2 of the frequency chosen:

  • 20 ps peak-to-peak
  • 1.42 ps RMS at 1e-12 BER
  • 1.22 ps at 1e-16 BER

Connect directly to GND if unused.

The input reference clock must be stable and free-running at device power-up for proper PLL calibrations and a successful configuration.

RREF_ESRAM_[0,1] eSRAM RREF Input Reference resistor pin for UIB PLL and eSRAM PLL, specific to top (T) and bottom (B) of device. If any UIB PLL or eSRAM PLL on the top or bottom side of the device is used, the corresponding RREF pin on that side of the device (top or bottom) must connect to its own individual 2K Ω +/-1% resistor to GND. The PCB trace between this pin and the reference resistor needs to be carefully routed to avoid any aggressor signals.
UIB_RREF_[00,01] UIB RREF Input Reference resistor pin for UIB IO ZQ calibration. Connect each pin through an individual 240Ω +/- 1% resistor to GND. No resistor sharing between pins is allowed. Leave this pin floating if unused.
