How to assign LVDS in 1.8V bank in Cyclone VE

How to assign A LVDS clock to CLKn pins in 1.8V IO Bank in 5CEA9 device。If the LVDS clock signal name is clk1_p/clk1_n，it can be assigned to GCLK pins , but how to assign the IO Standard? All other s...

In cyclone V, 1.8V IO bank is not support the LVDS IO standard.Can you refer the datasheet (below link) table 20. for the VCCIO requirement for the LVDS.

https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/hb/cyclone-v/cv_51002.pdf.

In general assign the LVDS std to the clk pins in few ways

i) Use the pin planner setting in the quartus -> Assignments->Pin planner -> dropdown menu to assign the IO standrads,

ii) using Tcl assignment in qsf file, for example

set_instance_assignment -name IO_STANDARD "LVDS" -to "net_name_to assign(p)"

set_instance_assignment -name IO_STANDARD "LVDS" -to "net_name_to_assign(n)"

Thanks ,
