  • Updated the Guideline: Pin Placement for Differential Channels chapter for better clarity.
  • Clarified in the OCT Schemes Supported in Intel® Cyclone® 10 GX Devices table that Dynamic Rs and Rt OCT are not supportable for 3V I/O type.
2022.10.31
  • Added LVDS, RSDS, mini-LVDS, Differential POD12, and LVPECL to the list of I/O standards that support programmable I/O delay.
2022.09.29
  • Updated the outclk2 and outclk4 phase shift values in the topic listing the IOPLL parameter values for external PLL mode.
  • Added .qsf assignment information for on-chip differential I/O termination.
2022.08.03 Replaced the Guideline: Do Not Drive I/O Pins During Power Sequencing topic with the Guideline: Maximum Current Driving I/O Pins While Turned Off and During Power Sequencing topic.
2021.08.13 Updated the table that lists the SERDES transmitter I/O standards support to remove all previously listed I/O standards except True LVDS, mini-LVDS, and RSDS.
2019.12.27
  • Updated the programmable pre-emphasis diagram to remove the word "peak-peak".
  • Updated the pin placement guidelines for differential channels to clarify that the I/O bank PLL can drive transmitter channels in an adjacent I/O bank only in a wide transmitter interface that spans multiple I/O banks.
2019.05.07 Added a topic that provides a usage modes summary of the Intel® Cyclone® 10 GX LVDS SERDES.
2019.01.07
  • Updated I/O resource count for package F672 of the 10CX085 device.
  • Removed the MultiVolt I/O Interface in Intel® Cyclone® 10 GX Devices topic.
  • Updated the I/O Standards Voltage Levels in Intel® Cyclone® 10 GX Devices topic to add information about interfacing with systems of different voltages.
  • Removed statement that says that the programmable VOD value of "0" is not available for the LVDS I/O standard.
  • Removed ext_loaden signal in figures showing the LVDS receiver in soft-CDR mode.
  • Specified that connecting the IOPLL loaden signal to the LVDS receiver ext_loaden signal is not required for LVDS receivers in soft-CDR mode.
2018.02.02
  • In the topic about programmable open-drain output, changed the statement "logic-to-pin" to "logic to the output buffer".
  • Updated the number of pins in I/O banks 2J and 3A of package F672 of the 10CX085 device.
  • Removed the RSKM calculation example.
  • Updated the figure titles in the topic about LVPECL termination to clarify that the figures refer to external termination. There is no OCT support for LVPECL I/O standard.
  • Updated the guideline topic about pin placement for differential channels to clarify the following information:
    • In I/O banks used for differential receiver, the PLL can drive only the channels within the same I/O bank.
    • Unused pins within an I/O bank with the DPA feature enabled can be assigned to single ended I/O standards.
  • Clarified in the topic about I/O buffer and register that to utilize the I/O registers when implementing DDR circuitry, use the GPIO IP core.
  • Clarified that all singled-ended I/O assigned to the 3 V I/O bank supports all programmable I/O elements except programmable pre-emphasis, RD OCT, calibrated RS and RT OCT, and internal VREF generation.
  • Clarified that the 3 V I/O bank supports single-ended and differential SSTL, HSTL, and HSUL I/O standards.
  • Updated the topic about I/O and differential I/O buffers to specify that differential reference clock is supported for the I/O PLL that drives the SERDES.
  • Updated the guideline topic about VREF sources and VREF pins to specify that the VREF pins are dedicated for voltage-referenced signal-ended I/O standards.
