Hi, Could someone please explain the difference in performance between the low-speed and high-speed Max 10 I/O pins? I have searched the datasheet and have not be able to readily find the differen...

10 years agoHi,
there does not seem to be any information in the Max 10 user guide, but in the datasheet. Please note that those are two different documents :-) older devices, e.g. Cyclone II, combined those two documents in a single PDF, but Altera seems to split their documents into a handbook/uiserguide and a datasheet lately. The datasheet (https://documentation.altera.com/#/link/mcn1397700832153/mcn1397643748870 (https://documentation.altera.com/#/link/mcn1397700832153/mcn1397643748870)) says hat the low-speed pins support data rates up to 300 Mbps, whereas the high-speed pins support up to 310 Mbps (please double-check against your specific requirements, as the datasheet is in fact a bit more complicated, depending on the I/O standard you use).
