Functional Description
DS031-2 (v3.5) November 5, 2007
Detailed Description
Input/Output Blocks (IOBs)
Virtex-II™ I/O blocks (IOBs) are provided in groups of two or
four on the perimeter of each device. Each IOB can be used
as input and/or output for single-ended I/Os. Two IOBs can
be used as a differential pair. A differential pair is always
connected to the same switch matrix, as shown in Figure 1.
IOB blocks are designed for high performances I/Os, sup-
porting 19 single-ended standards, as well as differential
signaling with LVDS, LDT, Bus LVDS, and LVPECL.

Note: Differential I/Os must use the same clock.
Supported I/O Standards
Virtex-II IOB blocks feature SelectI/O-Ultra inputs and out-
puts that support a wide variety of I/O signaling standards.
In addition to the internal supply voltage (VCCINT = 1.5V),
output driver supply voltage (VCCO) is dependent on the I/O
standard (see Table 1 and Table 2). An auxiliary supply volt-
age (VCCAUX = 3.3 V) is required, regardless of the I/O
standard used. For exact supply voltage absolute maximum
ratings, see DC Input and Output Levels in Module 3.
All of the user IOBs have fixed-clamp diodes to VCCO and to
ground. As outputs, these IOBs are not compatible or com-
pliant with 5V I/O standards. As inputs, these IOBs are not
normally 5V tolerant, but can be used with 5V I/O standards
when external current-limiting resistors are used. For more
details, see the “5V Tolerant I/Os“ Tech Topic at www.xil-
inx.com.
Table 3 lists supported I/O standards with Digitally Con-
trolled Impedance. See Digitally Controlled Impedance
(DCI), page 8.

Notes:
1. VCCO of GTL or GTLP should not be lower than the termination
voltage or the voltage seen at the I/O pad. Example: If the pin High
level is 1.5V, connect VCCO to 1.5V.
2. SSTL18_I is not a JEDEC-supported standard.
3. N/R = no requirement.
