8.3. Pin Placement for Differential Channels

Each F-Series and I-Series GPIO sub-bank contains its own PLL. The PLL can drive all receiver and transmitter channels in the same sub-bank. However, the PLL of the sub-bank cannot drive receiver and transmitter channels in another GPIO sub-bank. You must use the dedicated clock pins to drive the LVDS PLLs.

Pins Arrangement in the GPIO Bank

In the device pin out files, the following pin index numbers indicate the location of the pins in a single GPIO bank:

  • 0 to 47—bottom sub-bank
  • 48 to 95—top sub-bank

PLLs Driving DPA-Enabled Differential Receiver Channels

  • For differential receivers, the PLL can drive all channels in the same I/O sub-bank but cannot drive across banks.
  • Each differential receiver in an I/O bank has a dedicated DPA circuit to align the phase of the clock to the data phase of its associated channel.
  • DPA usage adds some constraints to the placement of high-speed differential receiver channels. The Intel® Quartus® Prime compiler automatically checks the design and issues error messages if there are placement guidelines violations. Adhere to the guidelines to ensure proper high-speed I/O operation.
