PLLs in Stratix II and Stratix II GX Devices
Delay Compensation for Fast PLLs
Each center fast PLL can be fed by any one of four possible input clock
pins. Among the four clock input signals, only two are fully
compensated, i.e., the clock delay to the fast PLL matches the delay in the
data input path when used in the LVDS receiver mode. The two clock
inputs that match the data input path are located right next to the fast
PLL. The two clock inputs that do not match the data input path are
located next to the neighboring fast PLL. Figure 1–46 shows the above
description for the left-side center fast PLL pair. If the PLL is used in
non-LVDS modes, then any of the four dedicated clock inputs can be used
and are compensated.
Fast PLL 1 and PLL 2 can choose among CLK[3..0] as the clock input
source. However, for fast PLL 1, only CLK0 and CLK1 have their delay
matched to the data input path delay when used in the LVDS receiver
mode operation. The delay from CLK2 or CLK3 to fast PLL 1 does not
match the data input delay. For fast PLL 2, only CLK2 and CLK3 have their
delay matched to the data input path delay in LVDS receiver mode
operation. The delay from CLK0 or CLK1 to fast PLL 2 does not match the
data input delay. The same arrangement applies to the right side center
fast PLL pair. For corner fast PLLs, only the corner FPLLCLK pins are fully
compensated. For LVDS receiver operation, it is recommended to use the
delay compensated clock pins only.
