1.2.4. Differential I/O Pins

Note: Altera recommends that you create an Quartus® Prime design, enter your device I/O assignments, and compile the design. The Quartus® Prime software will check your pin connections according to I/O assignment and placement rules. The rules differ from one device to another based on device density, package, I/O assignments, voltage assignments, and other factors that are not fully described in this document or the device user guides.

DIFF_RX[2][A,B,C,D,E,F][1:24][p,n]

DIFF_RX[3][A,B,C,D,E,F][1:24][p,n]

I/O, RX channel

These are SERDES receiver channels on GPIO banks. If these pins are not used in SERDES implementation, these pins are available as user I/O pins.

Supported I/O standards:

  • 1.5-V I/O standard for true differential I/O
  • 1.2-V I/O standard for single-ended voltage referenced and non-voltage referenced I/O
  • 1.2-V I/O standard for differential voltage referenced I/O

These pins support the programmable pull-up resistor. For more information, refer to the Agilex™ 7 FPGAs and SoCs Device Data Sheet: F-Series and I-Series .

For more information about the supported pins, refer to the device pin-out file.

Connect unused pins as defined in the Quartus® Prime software.

DIFF_TX[2][A,B,C,D,E,F][1:24][p,n]

DIFF_TX[3][A,B,C,D,E,F][1:24][p,n]

I/O, TX channel

These are SERDES transmitter channels on GPIO banks. If these pins are not used in SERDES implementation, these pins are available as user I/O pins.

Supported I/O standards:

  • 1.5-V I/O standard for true differential I/O
  • 1.2-V I/O standard for single-ended voltage referenced and non-voltage referenced I/O
  • 1.2-V I/O standard for differential voltage referenced I/O

These pins support the programmable pull-up resistor. For more information, refer to the Agilex™ 7 FPGAs and SoCs Device Data Sheet: F-Series and I-Series .

For more information about the supported pins, refer to the device pin-out file.
