1.2.7. Remote Temperature Sensing Diode Pins

Note: Altera recommends that you create a Quartus® Prime design, enter your device I/O assignments, and compile the design. The Quartus® Prime software checks 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.

These pins connect to the internal temperature sensing diodes in the FPGA core and corner areas of the FPGA.

Connect these pins to an external temperature sensing device to allow sensing of the FPGA's temperature. If you do not use the temperature sensing diode with an external temperature sensing device, leave these pins unconnected.

For more information about the locations and channel numbers of the temperature sensors, refer to the Agilex™ 5 Sensor Monitoring System chapter in the Power Management User Guide: Agilex™ 5 FPGAs and SoCs .
