9 years agoMultiple PLLs running at or near the same frequency can "talk" to each other and cause problems. This may be a situation where you have to manually change PLL settings to vary the VCO frequencies between the PLLs. Here's is one mention about this issue from Altera:
https://www.altera.com/support/support-resources/knowledge-base/solutions/rd03282014_193.html This does not apply to Cyclone V, but I think the principles always apply. You may have to rethink you clocking architecture to get around this. I would open a service request with Altera and see if they have any restrictions or guidelines that you're not aware of.
