Configuration Features
The output resistance of the repeater buffers must fit the maximum overshoot
equation shown in Equation 9â1:
Equation 9â1. (1)
0.8ZO ï£ RE ï£ 1.8ZO
Note to Equation 9â1:
(1) ZO is the transmission line impedance and RE is the equivalent resistance of the output buffer.
Configuration Process
This section describes the configuration process.
f For more information about the configuration cycle state machine of Alteraï FPGAs,
refer to the Configuring Altera FPGAs chapter in volume 1 of the Configuration
Handbook.
Power Up
If the device is powered up from the power-down state, the VCCIO for all the I/O
banks must be powered up to the appropriate level for the device to exit POR.
To begin configuration, the required voltages listed in Table 9â4 must be powered up
to the appropriate voltage levels.
Table 9â4. Power-Up Voltage for Cyclone III Device Family Configuration
Device
Voltage that must be Powered-Up (1)
Cyclone III
Cyclone III LS
VCCINT, VCCA, VCCIO (2)
VCCBAT, VCCINT, VCCA, VCCIO (2)
Notes to Table 9â4:
(1) Voltages must be powered up to the appropriate voltage levels to begin configuration.
(2) VCCIO is for banks in which the configuration and JTAG pins reside.
Reset
When nCONFIG or nSTATUS is low, the device is in reset. After power-up, the Cyclone III
device family goes through POR. POR delay depends on the MSEL pin settings,
which correspond to your configuration scheme.
Depending on the configuration scheme, a fast or standard POR time is available.
POR time for fast POR ranges between 3â9 ms. POR time for standard POR, which
has a lower power-ramp rate, ranges between 50â200 ms.
During POR, the device resets, holds nSTATUS and CONF_DONE low, and tri-states all
user I/O pins.
1 The configuration bus is not tri-stated in POR stage if the MSEL pins are set to AS or AP
mode. To tri-state the configuration bus for AS and AP configuration schemes, you
must tie nCE high and nCONFIG low. For more information about the hardware
implementation, refer to âConfiguring With Multiple Bus Mastersâ on page 9â30.
