5.15.1. I/O Pin Multiplexing Differences Among Intel SoC Device Families

The available I/Os on SoC devices are divided into the following categories:

  • Dedicated function: Each I/O has only one function and cannot be used for other purposes.
  • Dedicated I/O with loaner capability: The I/Os are primarily used by the HPS, but individual I/Os can be used by the FPGA if the HPS is not using them.
  • Dedicated I/O: The I/Os can be used only by the HPS. The pins are not accessible to logic in the FPGA.
  • Shared I/O: The I/Os can be used by either the HPS or the FPGA. These pins are used by high-speed peripherals such as EMAC and USB.
  • FPGA I/O: These I/Os can only be used by the FPGA. Slow speed peripherals can be routed through the FPGA fabric and assigned to FPGA I/O.
