Selectable I/O Standards in Stratix II and Stratix II GX Devices
Stratix II GX devices have 6 general I/O banks and 4 enhanced
phase-locked loop (PLL) external clock output banks (Figure 4–22). I/O
banks 9 through 12 are enhanced PLL external clock output banks located
on the top and bottom of the device.

I/O Banks 3, 4, 9 & 11 support all
single-ended I/O standards for both
input and output operation. All
differential I/O standards are supported
for both input and output operation at
I/O banks 9 & 10.

Notes to Figure 4–22:
(1) Figure 4–22 is a top view of the silicon die which corresponds to a reverse view for flip-chip packages. It is a
graphical representation only.
(2) Depending on size of the device, different device members have different number of V_REF groups. Refer to the pin
list and the Quartus II software for exact locations.
(3) Banks 9 through 12 are enhanced PLL external clock output banks.
(4) Horizontal I/O banks feature transceiver and DPA circuitry for high speed differential I/O standards. Refer to the
High-Speed Differential I/O Interfaces with DPA in Stratix II & Stratix II GX Devices chapter in volume 2 of the
Stratix II GX Device Handbook, or the Stratix II GX Transceiver User Guide (volume 1) of the Stratix II GX Device
Handbook for more information on differential I/O standards.
(5) Quartus II software does not support differential SSTL and differential HSTL standards at left/right I/O banks.
Refer to the “Differential I/O Standards” on page 4–10 if you need to implement these standards at these I/O banks.
(6) Banks 11 and 12 are available only in EP2SGX60C/D/E, EP2SGX90E/F, and EP2SGX130G.
(7) PLLs 7,8,11, and 12 are available only in EP2SGX60C/D/E, EP2SGXE/F, and EP2SGX130G.
