Honored ContributorHello stephenzhou,
The cyclone device doesn't have CDR function, neither does stratix 1 and 2 on the LVDS port, so you should use it with reference clock. You don't need clock for each data line, and may be able to send 2bits data with one referece clock. I depends, however, on the frequency and board skew. Thanks,
