Electrical Characteristics
Supply Current
Supply current is the current the device draws after the device is configured with no
inputs or outputs toggling and no activity in the device. Use the Excel-based Early
Power Estimator (EPE) to get the supply current estimates for your design because
these currents vary largely with the resources you use. Table 2–4 lists the I/O pin
leakage current for Cyclone III LS devices.
f For more information about power estimation tools, refer to the PowerPlay Early Power
Estimator User Guide and the PowerPlay Power Analysis chapter in the Quartus II
Handbook.

Notes to Table 2–4:
(1) This value is specified for normal device operation. The value varies during device power-up. This applies for all
VCCIO settings (3.3, 3.0, 2.5, 1.8, 1.5, and 1.2 V).
(2) The 10 μA I/O leakage current limit is applicable when the internal clamping diode is off. A higher current can be
observed when the diode is on.
Bus Hold
Bus hold retains the last valid logic state after the source driving it either enters the
high impedance state or is removed. Each I/O pin has an option to enable bus hold in
user mode. Bus hold is always disabled in configuration mode.
Table 2–5 lists the bus hold specifications for Cyclone III LS devices. Also listed are the
input pin capacitances and OCT tolerance specifications.
