Chapter 1: Device Datasheet for Arria II Devices 1–3 December 2013 Altera Corporation Arria II Device Ha ndbook Volume 3: Device Datasheet and Addendum Maximum Allowed Overshoot and Undershoot Voltage During transitions, input signals may overshoot to the voltage shown in Table 1–3 and undershoot to –2.0 V for magnitude of currents less than 100 mA and periods shorter than 20 ns. Table 1–3 lists the Arria II GX and GZ maximum allowed input overshoot voltage and the duration of the overshoot voltage as a percentage over the device lifetime. The maximum allowed overshoot duration is specified as a percentage of high-time over the lifetime of the device. A DC signal is equivalent to 100% duty cycle. For example, a signal that overshoots to 4.3 V can only be at 4.3 V for 5.41% over the lifetime of the device; for a device lifetime of 10 years, this amounts to 5.41/10ths of a year.

Power Consumption for the Arria II Device Family Altera offers two ways to estimate power for a design: ■ Using the Microsoft Excel-based Early Power Estimator ■ Using the Quartus® II PowerPlay Power Analyzer feature The interactive Microsoft Excel-based Early Power Estimator is typically used prior to designing the FPGA in order to get a magnitude estimate of the device power. The Quartus II PowerPlay Power Analyzer provides better quality estimates based on the specifics of the design after place-and-route is complete. The PowerPlay Power Analyzer can apply a combination of user-entered, simulation-derived, and estimated signal activities which, when combined with detailed circuit models, can yield very accurate power estimates. f For more information about power estimation tools, refer to the PowerPlay Early Power Estimator User Guide and the PowerPlay Power Analysis chapter in volume 3 of the Quartus II Handbook.

Chapter 1: Device Datasheet for Arria II Devices 1–27 Switching Characteristics December 2013 Altera Corporation Arria II Device Ha ndbook Volume 3: Device Datasheet and Addendum Digital reset pulse width — Minimum is 2 parallel clock cycles Notes to Table 1–34: (1) For AC-coupled links, the on-chip biasing circuit is switched off before and during configuration. Ensure that input specifi cations are not violated during this period. (2) The rise/fall time is sp ecified from 20% to 80%. (3) To calculate the REFCLK rms phase jitter re quirement at reference clock frequencies other than 100 MHz, use the following formula: REFCLK rms phase jitter at f (MHz) = REFCLK rms phase jitter at 100 MHz * 100/f. (4) The minimum reconfig_clk frequency is 2.5 MHz if the transceiver channel is configured in Transmitter only mode. The minimum reconfig_clk frequency is 37.5 MHz if the transceiver channel is configured in Receiver only or Receiver and Transmitter mode. For more information, refer to AN 558: Implementing Dynamic Reconfiguration in Arria II Devices. (5) If your design uses more than one dynami c reconfiguration controller instances (altgx_reconfig) to control the transceiver channels (altgx) physically located on the same side of the device, and if you use different reconfig_clk sources for these altgx_reconfig instances, the delta time between any two of these reconfig_clk sources becoming stable must not exceed the maximum specification listed. (6) The device cannot tolerate prolonged operation at this absolute maximum. (7) You must use the 1.1-V RX V ICM setting if the input serial data standard is LVDS and the link is DC-coupled. (8) The rate matcher supports only up to ±300 parts per million (ppm). (9) Time taken to rx_pll_locked goes high from rx_analogreset de-assertion. Refer to Figure 1–1. (10) The time in which the CDR must be kept in lock-to-reference mode after rx_pll_locked goes high and before rx_locktodata is asserted in manual mode. Refer to Figure 1–1. (11) The time taken to recover valid data after the rx_locktodata signal is asserted in manual mode. Refer to Figure 1–1. (12) The time taken to recover valid data after the rx_freqlocked signal goes high in automatic mode. Refer to Figure 1–2. (13) To support data rates lower than the minimum specification through oversampling, use the CDR in LTR mode only. Table 1–34.

(2) The rise and fall time transiti on is specified from 20% to 80%. (3) To calculate the REFCLK rms phase jitter requirement at reference clock frequencies other than 100 MHz, use the following formula: REFCLK rms phase jitter at f (MHz) = REFCLK rms phase jitter at 100 MHz * 100/f. (4) The minimum reconfig_clk frequency is 2.5 MHz if the transceiver channel is configured in Transmitter only mode. The minimum reconfig_clk frequency is 37.5 MHz if the transceiver channel is configured in Receiver only or Receiver and Transmitter mode. (5) If your design uses more than one dynamic reconfiguration controller (altgx_reconfig) instances to control the transceiver (altgx) channels physically located on the same side of the device AND if you use different reconfig_clk sources for these altgx_reconfig instances, the delta time between any two of these reconfig_clk sources becoming stable must not exceed the maximum specification listed. (6) The device cannot tolerate prolonged operation at this absolute maximum. (7) You must use the 1.1-V RX V ICM setting if the input serial data standard is LVDS. (8) The differential eye opening specification at the receiver input pins assumes that Receiver Equalization is disabled. If you enable Receiver Equalization, the receiver circuitry can tolerate a lower minimum eye opening, depending on the equalization level. Use H-Spice simulation to derive the minimum eye opening requirement with Receiver Equalization enabled. (9) The rate matcher supports only up to ± 300 ppm. (10) Time taken to rx_pll_locked goes high from rx_analogreset de-assertion. Refer to Figure 1–1 on page 1–33. (11) Time for which the CDR must be kept in lock-to-reference mode after rx_pll_locked goes high and before rx_locktodata is asserted in manual mode. Refer to Figure 1–1 on page 1–33. (12) Time taken to recover valid data after the rx_locktodata signal is asserted in manual mode. Refer to Figure 1–1 on page 1–33. (13) Time taken to recover valid data after the rx_freqlocked signal goes high in automatic mode. Refer to Figure 1–2 on page 1–33. (14) A GPLL may be required to meet the PMA-FPGA fabric interface timing above certain data rates. For more information, refer to the Transceiver Clocking for Arria II Devices chapter. (15) The Quartus II software automatically selects the appropriate slew rate depending on the configured data rate or functional mode. (16) To support data rates lower than the minimum specification through oversampling, use the CDR in LTR mode only. Table 1–35.

I/O performance supports several system interfaces, for example the high-speed I/O interface, external memory interface, and the PCI/PCI-X bus interface. I/O using SSTL-18 Class I termination standard can achieve up to the stated DDR2 SDRAM interfacing speed with typical DDR2 SDRAM memory interface setup. I/O using general purpose I/O (GPIO) standards such as 3.0, 2.5, 1.8, or 1.5 LVTTL/LVCMOS are capable of typical 200 MHz interfacing frequency with 10pF load. 1 Actual achievable frequency depends on design- and system-specific factors. You should perform HSPICE/IBIS simulations based on your specific design and system setup to determine the maximum achievable frequency in your system.

Use W to determine the supported selection of input reference clock frequencies for the desired data rate. (2) Applicable for interfacing wi th DPA receivers only. For interfacing with non-DPA receivers, you must calculate the leftover timing margin in the receiver by performing link timing closure analysis. For Arria II GX transmitter to Arria II GX non-DPA receiver, the maximum supported data rate is 945 Mbps. For data rates above 840 Mbps, perform PCB trace compensation by adjusting the PCB trace length for LVDS channels to improve channel-to-channel skews. (3) The minimum and maximum specif ication depends on the clock source (for example, PLL and clock pin) and the clock routing resource you use (global, regional, or local). The I/O differential buffer and input register do not have a minimum toggle rate. (4) The specification is only applicab le under the influence of core noise. (5) Applicable for true LVDS using dedicated SERDES only. (6) Dedicated SERDES and DPA features are only available on the right banks. (7) You must calculate the leftover timing margin in the receiver by performing link timing closure analysis. You must consider the board skew margin, transmitter channel-to-channel skew, and the receiver sampling margin to determine the leftover timing margin. Table 1–53.

(2) When J = 1 or 2, bypass the SERDES block. (3) Clock Boost Factor (W) is the ratio between input data rate to the input clock rate. (4) The minimum specification depends on th e clock source (for example, the PLL and clock pin) and the clock routing resource (global, regional, or local) that you use. The I/O differential buffer and input register do not have a minimum toggle rate. (5) You must calculate the leftover timing margin in the receiver by performing link timing closure analysis. You must consider the board skew margin, transmitter channel-to-channel skew, and receiver sampling margin to determine leftover timing margin. (6) You can estimate the achievable maximum data rate for non-DPA mode by performing link timing closure analysis. You must consider the board skew margin, transmitter delay margin, and the receiver sampling margin to determine the maximum data rate supported. (7) This is achieved by using th e LVDS and DPA clock network. (8) If the receiver with DPA enabled an d transmitter are using shared PLLs, the minimum data rate is 150 Mbps. (9) This only applies to DPA and soft-CDR modes. (10) This only applies to LVDS source synchronous mode. Table 1–54.

Chapter 1: Device Datasheet for Arria II Devices 1–73 I/O Timing December 2013 Altera Corporation Arria II Device Ha ndbook Volume 3: Device Datasheet and Addendum I/O Timing Altera offers two ways to determine I/O timing: ■ Using the Microsoft Excel-based I/O Timing. ■ Using the Quartus II Timing Analyzer. The Microsoft Excel-based I/O Timing provides pin timing performance for each device density and speed grade. The data is typically used prior to designing the FPGA to get an estimate of the timing budget as part of the link timing analysis. The Quartus II timing analyzer provides a more accurate and precise I/O timing data based on the specifics of the design after place-and-route is complete. f The Microsoft Excel-based I/O Timing spreadsheet is downloadable from the Literature: Arria II Devices web page.

The setup and hold times determine the ideal strobe position within the sampling window: Timing Diagram Single-ended Voltage Referenced I/O Standard The JEDEC standard for SSTL and HSTL I/O standards define both the AC and DC input signal values. The AC values indicate the voltage levels at which the receiver must meet its timing specifications. The DC values indicate the voltage levels at which the final logic state of the receiver is unambiguously defined. After the receiver input has crossed the AC value, the receiver changes to the new logic state. The new logic state is then maintained as long as the input stays beyond the AC threshold. This approach is intended to provide predictable receiver timing in the presence of input waveform ringing: Single-Ended Voltage Referenced I/O Standard T t C High-speed receiver and transmitter input and output clock period.
