f For more information about pin connection guidelines, refer to the Stratix IV GX and
Stratix IV E Device Family Pin Connection Guidelines.
The Stratix IV VCCPD power pins must be connected to a 2.5- or 3.0-V power supply.
Using these power pins to supply the pre-driver power to the output buffers increases
the performance of the output pins. Table 6–5 lists Stratix IV MultiVolt I/O support.

Notes to Table 6–5:
(1) The pin current may be slightly higher than the default value. You must verify that the driving device’s VOL maximum and VOH minimum voltages
do not violate the applicable Stratix IV VIL maximum and VIH minimum voltage specifications.
(2) Altera recommends that you use an external clamping diode on the I/O pins when the input signal is 3.0 V or 3.3 V. You have the option to use
an internal clamping diode for column I/O pins.
(3) Each I/O bank of a Stratix IV device has its own VCCIO pins and supports only one VCCIO, either 1.2, 1.5, 1.8, or 3.0 V. The LVDS I/O standard
is not supported when VCCIO is 3.0 V. The LVDS input operations are supported when VCCIO is 1.2 V, 1.5 V, 1.8 V, or 2.5 V. The LVDS output
operations are only supported when VCCIO is 2.5 V.
On-Chip Termination Support and I/O Termination Schemes
Stratix IV devices feature dynamic series and parallel OCT to provide I/O impedance
matching and termination capabilities. OCT maintains signal quality, saves board
space, and reduces external component costs.
Stratix IV devices support:
■ On-chip series termination (RS) with calibration
■ On-chip series termination (RS) without calibration
■ On-chip Parallel termination (RT) with calibration
■ Dynamic series termination for single-ended I/O standards
■ Dynamic Parallel termination for single-ended I/O standards
■ On-chip differential termination (RD) for differential LVDS I/O standards
Stratix IV devices support OCT in all I/O banks by selecting one of the OCT I/O
standards.
These devices also support OCT RS and RT in the same I/O bank for different I/O
standards if they use the same VCCIO supply voltage. You can independently configure
each I/O in an I/O bank to support OCT RS, programmable current strength, or OCT
RT.
1 You cannot configure both OCT RS and programmable current strength for the same
I/O buffer.
