13 years agoCyclone V LVDS differential termination
In the pin planner I specified input termination as differential for LVDS inputs. Do I need to specify for both positive and negative signals or just one? It seems to work both ways which bother...

13 years agoSounds unlikely. Up to now, the basic method with differential I/O standards has been to assign the non-inverted pin and also specifiy additional I/O features for thi spin.
The pin planner tool is primarly a wrapper around the pin assignments, but does some things on it's own by e.g. displaying the inverted pins along with the (primarly assigned) non-inverted pins. In case of doubt, I would check the actual pin assignments, in assignment editor or *.qsf file.
