Why does the IO Bank Usage report in Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software show that a VREF is required for banks that contain Differential SSTL/HSTL inputs when using Stratix® 10 devices?

Environment

  • Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition
  • BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
    Description

    Due to a problem in Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software version 24.1 and earlier when using Stratix® 10 devices, the IO Bank usage shows a VREF is required for banks that contain Differential SSTL/HSTL inputs but no single ended SSTL/HSTL inputs. 

     

    Resolution

    Differential SSTL/HSTL inputs do not require an external VREF, so you can ignore this for banks with Differential SSTL/HSTL inputs and no single ended SSTL/HSTL inputs.

    This issue will be fixed in a future version of the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software.
