Fitter I/O Reports

The Fitter generates the following reports to summarize I/O and pin usage information if you specify one or more pin settings in the Settings dialog box.

All Package Pins Report

Reports all the pins and their I/O standards Definition for the target device family.

The pin name and the symbol in the pin name represent the type of pin and its function as follows:

  • N.C. (No Connect) shows a pin that has no internal connection to the device.
  • VCCINT shows a dedicated power pin, which must be connected to VCC internal signal.
  • VCCIO shows a dedicated power pin, which must be connected to VCC I/O bank.
  • GND shows a dedicated ground pin or unused dedicated input, which must be connected to GND.
  • GNDINT shows a dedicated ground pin or unused dedicated input, which must be connected to GND internal signal.
  • GNDIO shows a dedicated ground pin which must be connected to GND.
  • RESERVED shows an unused I/O pin, which must be left unconnected.
  • ^ character in name shows a dedicated configuration pin.
  • + character in name shows a reserved configuration pin that is tri-stated in user mode.
  • * character in name shows a reserved configuration pin that drives out in user mode.
  • # character in name shows a JTAG BST/in-system programming or configuration pin. The JTAG inputs TMS and TDI should be tied to VCC, and TCK should be tied to GND when not in use.
  • & character in name shows a JTAG pin used as an I/O pin. When used as I/O pins, JTAG pins must be kept stable before and during configuration. JTAG pin stability prevents accidental loading of JTAG instructions.
  • GND+ shows an unused input. This pin should be connected to GND. It may also be connected to a legal signal on the board if that signal is required for a different revision of the design.
