The following conditions apply to the differential I/O standard support:

  • The Bus LVDS transmitter and receiver fMAX depend on system topology and performance requirement.
  • The Differential LVPECL I/O standard is supported only on dedicated clock input pins.
  • The following differential I/O standards are supported only on clock input pins and PLL clock output pins:
    • Differential SSTL-2 and Differential SSTL-18
    • Differential 1.8 V HSTL, Differential 1.5 V HSTL, and Differential 1.2 V HSTL
  • PLL clock output pins do not support Class II interface for these differential I/O standards:
    • Differential SSTL-18
    • Differential 1.8 V HSTL, Differential 1.5 V HSTL, and Differential 1.2 V HSTL
  • Differential 1.2 V HSTL Class II I/O standard is supported only in column I/O banks.
