19 years agoHow to connect DDR2 clock?
In my design, a DDR2 SDRAM module is connected to the EP3C120, but I don't know how to connect the clk pins. There are two pairs of differential clk signal in my DDR2 SDRAM module: clk0, clkn0, clk1 and clkn1. Can they be connected to the regular user I/O? Thanks!

You can just use regular IO pins. Just make sure you run the fitter in Quartus and address any ALTMEMPHY complaints before laying out the PCB.

But in the EP3C120, each pll has only one pair of clock output signals. But my DDR2 SDRAM module requires two pairs. Should I connect them to two different plls respectively?

use the pll_out_p and pll_out_n
