15 years agoLoss of lock in the PLL of ALTLVDS_Rx
Hi, I have two similar boards based on Cyclone III. My project works in both boards. This project performs exchange of data between boards with LVDS (physical link is made by SATA cable and conn...

Critical Warning: PLL"altlvds_tx0:inst23|altlvds_tx:altlvds_tx_component|lvds_tx_9hi1:auto_generated|lvds_tx_pll" input clock inclk[0] is not fully compensated because it is fed by a remote clock pin "Pin_90". It may be the possible reason of loss of lock in the PLL of receiver. But Pin 90 is dedicated clock input (CLK14) in EP3C16Q240C8 and I connected external clock generator (20 MHz) to pin 90. What pin of EP3C16Q240C8 I need to connect external clock generator ? How can I determine a dedicated (not remote) clock input pin for PLL used in ALTLVDS_Tx?
