2.5.2. Placement Restrictions for True Differential and Single-Ended I/O Standards in the Same or Adjacent HSIO Bank

If you use true differential I/O standards and single-ended I/O standards in the same or adjacent HSIO banks, adhere to the following placement guidelines.
  • Do not place true differential and toggling single-ended I/O standards in the combinations of locations listed in the following tables.
  • The Quartus® Prime software issues the following errors:
    • Compilation error—violation of the same bank placement restriction.
    • Critical warning—assignment of true differential I/O standards to pin pairs with the following pin index numbers: 0 and 1, 6 and 7, 88 and 89, and 94 and 95.
Table 19.  Restricted Pin Placement Combinations for True Differential and Single-Ended I/O Standards in the Same HSIO Bank

This table lists the combinations of pins and I/O standards not allowed in the same HSIO bank. Examples:

  • If you place a true differential I/O standard in pin pair 10 and 11, do not place single-ended I/O standards in pins 8 or 19.
  • If you place a single-ended I/O standard in pin 57 or 67, do not place a true differential I/O standard in pin pair 58 and 59.

Table 20.  Restricted Pin Placement Combinations for True Differential and Single-Ended I/O Standards in Adjacent HSIO Banks

This table lists the combinations of pins and I/O standards not allowed in adjacent HSIO banks. Examples:

  • If you place a true differential I/O standard in pin pair 6 and 7 of bank 3B, do not place single-ended I/O standards in pin 95 of bank 3A.
  • If you place a single-ended I/O standard in pin 2 of bank 2B, do not place a true differential I/O standard in pin pair 88 and 89 of bank 2A.
