6. Agilex™ 5 I/O Troubleshooting Guidelines

These debug guidelines are initial debug actions and do not necessarily resolve the failures in your designs.
Table 50.  GPIO Debug GuidelinesThis table lists the failure symptoms and the associated debug actions that you can take to identify the failure areas when you are designing GPIO systems with Agilex™ 5 devices.
Failure Symptoms Recommended Debug Actions

1.2 V LVCMOS output at the entire bank does not reach 1.2 V.

Note: Not applicable to the HVIO bank.
  • Check the power-up and power-down sequences of each voltage rail with respect to time.
  • Compare the power sequences as per recommendation in the Power Management User Guide: Agilex™ 5 FPGAs and SoCs .
  • Verify the VCCIO_PIO voltage signal is 1.2 V.

Quartus® Prime software shows an error message to indicate incorrect I/O settings for VCCIO during design compilation.

Error message example: Illegal constraint of I/O bank to the location <I/O bank>

Select the I/O pins specified in the error message and check the I/O settings for the pins.

Quartus® Prime software shows illegal I/O error message during design compilation.

Error message example: Programmable VOD option is set to 1 for pin <pin_name>, but setting is not supported by <I/O standard>

Select the I/O pins specified in the error message and set the pins to the correct I/O function. Refer to the device pin-outs file for more information about the pin functions.
