1. Device Datasheet for Arria II Devices
This chapter describes the electrical and switching characteristics of the Arria^® II
device family. The Arria II device family includes the Arria II GX and GZ devices.
Electrical characteristics include operating conditions and power consumption.
Switching characteristics include transceiver specifications, core, and periphery
performance. This chapter also describes I/O timing, including programmable I/O
element (IOE) delay and programmable output buffer delay.
f For information regarding the densities and packages of devices in the Arria II device
family, refer to Overview for the Arria II Device Family chapter.
This chapter contains the following sections:
■ “Electrical Characteristics” on page 1–1
■ “Transceiver Performance Specifications” on page 1–21
■ “Glossary” on page 1–74
Electrical Characteristics
The following sections describe the electrical characteristics.
Operating Conditions
Arria II devices are rated according to a set of defined parameters. To maintain the
highest possible performance and reliability of Arria II devices, you must consider the
operating requirements described in this chapter.
Arria II devices are offered in both commercial and industrial grades. Arria II GX
devices are offered in –4 (fastest), –5, and –6 (slowest) commercial speed grades and
–3 and –5 industrial speed grades. Arria II GZ devices are offered in –3 and –4 speed
grades for both commercial and industrial grades.
1 In this chapter, a prefix associated with the operating temperature range is attached to
the speed grades; commercial with the "C" prefix and industrial with the “I” prefix.
Commercial devices are indicated as C4, C5, and C6 speed grade, and the industrial
devices are indicated as I3 and I5.
Absolute Maximum Ratings
Absolute maximum ratings define the maximum operating conditions for Arria II
devices. The values are based on experiments conducted with the device and
theoretical modeling of breakdown and damage mechanisms. The functional
operation of the device is not implied under these conditions. Table 1–1 lists the
absolute maximum ratings for Arria II GX devices. Table 1–2 lists the absolute
maximum ratings for Arria II GZ devices.
