Maximum Allowed Overshoot and Undershoot Voltage
During transitions, input signals may overshoot to the voltage listed in the following table and undershoot to –2.0 V for input currents less than 100
mA and periods shorter than 20 ns.
e maximum allowed overshoot duration is specied as a percentage of high time over the lifetime of the device. A DC signal is equivalent to
100% duty cycle.
For example, a signal that overshoots to 4.00 V can only be at 4.00 V for ~15% over the lifetime of the device; for a device lifetime of 10 years, this
amounts to 1.5 years.

DC Characteristics
Supply Current and Power Consumption
Altera oers two ways to estimate power for your design—the Excel-based Early Power Estimator (EPE) and the Quartus® Prime PowerPlay Power
Analyzer feature.
Use the Excel-based EPE before you start your design to estimate the supply current for your design. e EPE provides a magnitude estimate of the
device power because these currents vary greatly with the resources you use.
e Quartus Prime PowerPlay Power Analyzer provides better quality estimates based on the specics of the design aer you complete place-and-
route. e PowerPlay Power Analyzer can apply a combination of user-entered, simulation-derived, and estimated signal activities that, when
combined with detailed circuit models, yields very accurate power estimates.

Transmitter Pre-Emphasis Levels
e following table lists the simulation data on the transmitter pre-emphasis levels in dB for the rst post tap under the following conditions:
Low-frequency data pattern—ve 1s and ve 0s
Data rate—2.5 Gbps
e levels listed are a representation of possible pre-emphasis levels under the specied conditions only and the pre-emphasis levels may change
with data pattern and data rate.
Cyclone V devices only support 1st post tap pre-emphasis with the following conditions:
e 1st post tap pre-emphasis settings must satisfy |B| + |C| ≤ 60 where |B| = VOD setting with termination value, RTERM = 100 Ω and |C| = 1st
post tap pre-emphasis setting.
|B| – |C| > 5 for data rates < 5 Gbps and |B| – |C| > 8.25 for data rates > 5 Gbps.
(VMAX/VMIN – 1)% < 600%, where VMAX = |B| + |C| and VMIN = |B| – |C|.

Exception for PCIe Gen2 design:
VOD setting = 50 and pre-emphasis setting = 22 are allowed for PCIe Gen2 design with transmit de-emphasis –6dB setting (pipe_txdeemp =
1’b0) using Altera PCIe Hard IP and PIPE IP cores.
VOD setting = 50 and pre-emphasis setting = 12 are allowed for PCIe Gen2 design with transmit de-emphasis –3.5dB setting (pipe_txdeemp =
1’b1) using Altera PCIe Hard IP and PIPE IP cores.
For example, when VOD = 800 mV, the corresponding VOD value setting is 40. e following conditions show that the 1st post tap pre-emphasis
setting = 2 is valid:
|B| + |C| ≤ 60→ 40 + 2 = 42
|B| – |C| > 5→ 40 – 2 = 38
(VMAX/VMIN – 1)% < 600%→ (42/38 – 1)% = 10.52%
To predict the pre-emphasis level for your specic data rate and pattern, run simulations using the Cyclone V HSSI HSPICE models.

Memory Block Performance Specications
To achieve the maximum memory block performance, use a memory block clock that comes through global clock routing from an on-chip PLL
and set to 50% output duty cycle. Use the Quartus Prime soware to report timing for the memory block clocking schemes.
When you use the error detection cyclical redundancy check (CRC) feature, there is no degradation in fMAX.

board skew margin, transmitter delay margin, and receiver sampling margin to determine the maximum data rate supported.

Note that a delay of 0 is not allowed. e setup time can be used as a reference starting point. It is very crucial to do a calibration to get the correct rx_
sample_dly value because each SPI slave device may have dierent output delay and each application board may have dierent path delay. For more

SD/MMC Timing Characteristics
Table 45: Secure Digital (SD)/MultiMediaCard (MMC) Timing Requirements for Cyclone V Devices
Aer power up or cold reset, the Boot ROM uses drvsel = 3 and smplsel = 0 to execute the code. At the same time, the SD/MMC controller enters
the Identication Phase followed by the Data Phase. During this time, the value of interface output clock SDMMC_CLK_OUT changes from a maximum
of 400 kHz (Identication Phase) up to a maximum of 12.5 MHz (Data Phase), depending on the internal reference clock SDMMC_CLK and the CSEL
setting. e value of SDMMC_CLK is based on the external oscillator frequency and has a maximum value of 50 MHz.
Aer the Boot ROM code exits and control is passed to the preloader, soware can adjust the value of drvsel and smplsel via the system manager.
drvsel can be set from 1 to 7 and smplsel can be set from 0 to 7. While the preloader is executing, the values for SDMMC_CLK and SDMMC_CLK_OUT
increase to a maximum of 200 MHz and 50 MHz respectively.
e SD/MMC interface calibration support will be available in a future release of the preloader through the SoC EDS soware update.

FPP Conguration Timing
DCLK-to-DATA[] Ratio (r) for FPP Conguration
Fast passive parallel (FPP) conguration requires a dierent DCLK-to-DATA[] ratio when you turn on encryption or the compression feature.
Depending on the DCLK-to-DATA[] ratio, the host must send a DCLK frequency that is r times the DATA[] rate in byte per second (Bps) or word per
second (Wps). For example, in FPP ×16 where the r is 2, the DCLK frequency must be 2 times the DATA[] rate in Wps.
Cyclone V devices use additional clock cycles to decrypt and decompress the conguration data. If the DCLK-to-DATA[] ratio is greater than 1, at the
end of conguration, you can only stop the DCLK (DCLK-to-DATA[] ratio – 1) clock cycles aer the last data is latched into the Cyclone V device.

You can set the programmable output buer delay in the Quartus Prime soware by setting the Output Buer Delay Control assignment to either
positive, negative, or both edges, with the specic values stated here (in ps) for the Output Buer Delay assignment.
(98) You can set this value in the Quartus Prime soware by selecting D1, D3, D4, and D5 in the Assignment Name column of Assignment Editor.

Single-ended voltage referenced I/O
standard e JEDEC standard for the SSTL and HSTL I/O denes both the AC and DC input signal values. e AC
values indicate the voltage levels at which the receiver must meet its timing specications. e DC values
indicate the voltage levels at which the nal logic state of the receiver is unambiguously dened. Aer the
receiver input has crossed the AC value, the receiver changes to the new logic state.
e new logic state is then maintained as long as the input stays beyond the DC threshold. is approach
is intended to provide predictable receiver timing in the presence of input waveform ringing.
