Bidirectional IO connected to FPGA fabric on Cyclone V SOC Dev. Kit

I have a Cyclone V SoC Dev. kit. (DK-DEV-5CSXC6N) Which has a 5CSXFC6D6F31 Cyclone V FPGA I need to connect my own I2C slave-only controller implemented in the FPGA fabric to a couple of pins acce...

Hello,


You can refer to the pinout file for the respective device that you used, for example this case is Cyclone V. Refer link below:

For each type of the pin description and guidelines, you can refer to link below:

Hi,
except for a few dedicated clock signals and Gigabit transceiver signals, none of the HSMC connected FPGA pins is unidirectional. You'll see if you study the pin list. It's just the case that HSMC standard assigns directions to specific pins.
