5.11.3. True LVDS Buffers in Cyclone® V Devices

The Cyclone® V device family supports LVDS on all I/O banks:

  • Both row and column I/Os support true LVDS input buffers with RD OCT and true LVDS output buffers.
  • Cyclone® V devices offer single-ended I/O reference clock support for the fractional PLL that drives the SERDES.
Note: True LVDS output buffers cannot be tri-stated.

The following tables list the number of true LVDS buffers supported in Cyclone® V devices with these conditions:

  • The LVDS channel count does not include dedicated clock pins.
  • Each I/O sub-bank can support up to two independent ALTLVDS interfaces. For example, you can place two ALTLVDS interfaces in bank 8A driven by two different PLLs, provided that the LVDS channels are not interleaved.
