2.5.17. 1.05 V, 1.1 V, or 1.2 V I/O Interface Voltage Level Compatibility

Evaluate the electrical signal level compatibility between Agilex™ 5 1.05 V, 1.1 V, or 1.2 V output and the downstream device. Ensure that the VOH and VOL voltages of the 1.05 V, 1.1 V, or 1.2 V output buffer conform to the VIH and VIL specifications of the receiving buffer of the downstream device.

1.2 V LVCMOS I/O Standard Voltage Swing Calculation

If you use the 1.2 V LVCMOS I/O standard, the output signal swings from 0 V to 1.2 V on a lossless transmission line with no external pull-up or pull-down component. Ensure that the VIH or VIL tolerance of the downstream connecting device can meet those conditions.

1.2 V Voltage-Referenced I/O Standards Voltage Swing Calculation

If you use the 1.2 V voltage-referenced I/O standards, the output signal swing has a dependency on the external board termination or the internal termination of the receiver.

Figure 23. Equivalent Circuit of the Example with Output Buffer Driving HIGHWhen the output buffer is driving HIGH, the pin voltage is 0.93 V based on voltage divider rule: ( ).
Figure 24. Equivalent Circuit of the Example with Output Buffer Driving LOWWhen the output buffer is driving LOW, the pin voltage is 0.27 V based on the voltage divider rule: ( ).
