Stratix® 10 P-Tile Transceiver Pins
Pin Name | Pin Functions | Pin Description | Connection Guidelines |
---|---|---|---|
IO_AUX_RREF[10, 11, 12, 20, 21, 22]_P | Input | Reference resistor for P-Tile transceivers. | Connect each IO_AUX_RREF pin to a 2.8 KΩ resistor (±1%) to GND. In the PCB layout, the trace from this pin to the resistor needs to be routed such that it avoids any aggressor signals. If this tile is unused, you must connect the 2.8 KΩ resistor between this pin and GND. |
U[10, 11, 12, 20, 21, 22]_P_IO_RESREF_0 | Input | Transceiver reference resistor connection for PMA circuitry to provide termination for calibration. | Connect each pin to 169 Ω (±1%, 100 ppm/C) precision resistor to GND if the UltraPath Interconnect (UPI)/ PCIe* is 85 Ω impedance. Place this resistor very close to the IO_RESREF pin. Avoid routing any noisy signals next to this reference resistor or its traces. Tie resistor to GND plane through a via placed very close to the reference resistor. External reference resistor parasitic capacitance load must be less than 6.5 pF. |
I_PIN_PERST_N[10, 11, 12, 20, 21, 22]_P | Input | PCI Express* ( PCIe* ) Platform reset pin. | In a PCI Express* ( PCIe* ) adapter card implementation, connect the PCIe* nPERST signal from the PCIe* edge connector to each P-Tile transceiver bank I_PIN_PERST_N input. Use a level translator to fan out and change the 3.3 V open-drain nPERST signal from the PCIe* connector to the 1.8 V I_PIN_PERST_N input of each P-Tile transceiver that is used on the board. Provide a 1.8 V pull-up resistor to the I_PIN_PERST_N input as the nPERST signal from the PCIe* connector is an open-drain signal. You must pull up the 3.3 V PCIe* nPERST signal on the adapter card. For the UltraPath Interconnect (UPI) mode, contact Altera for guidance. If the tile is unused, tie to GND. |
GXP[L, R][10, 11, 12][A, B, C]_TX_CH[0:19][p,n] | Output | Differential-based transmitter pins, specific to P-Tile transceivers on the left (L) side and right (R) side of the device. These pins support NRZ encoding up to 16Gbps. |
Connection guidelines for the PCIe* and UltraPath Interconnect (UPI) modes are as follow:
When these pins are not used, they can be floating. |
GXP[L, R][10, 11, 12][A, B, C]_RX_CH[0:19][p,n] | Input | Differential-based receiver pins, specific to P-Tile transceivers on the left (L) side and right (R) side of the device. These pins support NRZ encoding up to 16 Gbps. |
When these pins are not used, they must be tied via a 1 kΩ pull-down resistor to GND. |
REFCLK_GXP[L, R][10, 11, 12][A, B, C]_CH[0, 2][p,n] | Input | Standard PCIe* HCSL reference clock input pins, specific to P-Tile transceivers on the left (L) side and right (R) side of the device. | For the HCSL I/O standard, it only supports DC coupling. In the PCIe* configuration, DC-coupling is allowed on the REFCLK if the selected REFCLK I/O standard is the HCSL I/O standard. Connect each unused REFCLK_GXP pin to GND plane directly on its own via. Do not share vias when connecting to GND. You must connect a 100 MHz reference clock to both reference clock inputs for x16 and 4x4 modes. These reference clocks must be derived from the same clock source. A fan-out buffer can be used but must meet a ±300 ppm requirement. For 2x8 modes, you can connect both reference clock inputs to the same clock source or connect to two independent clock sources. If the P-Tile is completely unused, tie both REFCLK inputs to GND. Unused reference clock pins must be tied to 1 kΩ pull-down resistor to GND. |
S_STRAP[10,11,12,20,21,22]_P | Input | Internal strap pins. | For PCIe* only system, connect to GND. For UltraPath Interconnect (UPI) applications, connect the strap pins as follows:
For the UltraPath Interconnect (UPI) mode, contact Intel® for guidance. |
NODE_ID[0,1][10,11,12,20,21,22]_P | Input | Internal node ID pins. | For PCIe* only system, connect both ID pins to GND. For UltraPath Interconnect (UPI) applications, connect these ID pins to the corresponding CPU ID of the UPI interface.
If the tile is unused, tie to GND. For the UltraPath Interconnect (UPI) mode, contact Altera for guidance. |
