    We have Reference Voltage Pin (VREF) available in MAX10. However, it is meant for some I/O Bank that requires reference voltage for input operation.

    Thank you for your reply. Maybe my question was a bit vague.

    I would like to output the internal Vref voltage to be accessed by some external cicuit.

    It is not possible as the vref input pin is used for IO buffer. May i know what is the reason to ouput vref voltage to external device?

    Just to use 2.5V reference voltage for the OpAmp input.

    If it so, i would suggest to use 1 of the I/O pin to supply a constant 2.5V to the OpAmp input.
