PLL? Cyclone ii? I/o

So it looks like i may not be able to do this since my clock is going to a general I/O.

Don't assume, go and try it. If the tool has I/O pad-to-clock net internal routing resources, it might work. I can't guarantee it will, but its simple enough to try. Worst case, bring your clock in on your I/O pin, and output it on an I/O pin next to a clock pin, and then short the output and clock input together :)

What stand-alone internal clock options does the cyclone ii have? Can it run completly independent without a crystal etc? How fast?

I don't think the Cyclone parts have an internal oscillator that is available to the user (the MAX II CPLD parts do).
