Figure 5–2 shows Cyclone III device family PLLs, clock inputs, and clock control
block location for different device densities.

Notes to Figure 5–2:
(1) There are five clock control blocks on each side.
(2) Only one of the corner CDPCLK pins in each corner can feed the clock control block at a time. You can use the other CDPCLK pins as
general-purpose I/O pins.
(3) Remote clocks cannot be used to feed the PLLs.
(4) Dedicated clock paths can feed into this PLL. However, these paths are not fully compensated.
