4 years agoEnabling series termination on 1.0V and 3.3V IOs in MAX10 FPGA
Hi All,
Can I enable series termination on 1.0V IOs of MAX10 FPGA. "MAX 10 General Purpose I/O User Guide" does not mention series termination options for 1.0V and 3.3V IOs. Also when I tried addi...

Most likely they still might work, but you will likely find slower slew rates/timing and/or reduced noise margin.
So if this is a one off design for use at room temperature you will likely find it still works.
But if this is a volume commercial design expected to work over the full device temperature/voltage range, then who knows.
If you do get failures, you can't go back to Intel and complain that their 1.2V I/Os are not working as expected at 1.0V.
You will be on your own at that point.
Your profile says you are an Intel employee, correct?
