17 years agoActually, ALTPLL megafunction is having c0,c1,c2 as PLL clock outputs for cyclone II EP2c20F484c7. The dedicated PLL clock output pins are (PLL1_OUTp, PLL1_OUTn), (PLL2_OUTp, PLL2_OUTn), (PLL3_OUTp, PLL3_OUTn), (PLL4_OUTp, PLL4_OUTn) (differential output).
I have access only to the two 40 pin expansion headers(which connects 72 FPGA pins) since it is a starter board. (PLL2_OUTp, PLL2_OUTn) pins are connected to one of the expansion headers. So, i tried to assign PLL2_OUTp pin to PLL clock output c2 since i need only single ended o/p & c2 is the clock output which drives the external clock o/p. Still, the same warning comes while compilation warning: pll "pll:u3|altpll:altpll_component|pll" output port clk[0] feeds output pin "c2" via non-dedicated routing -- jitter performance depends on switching rate of other design elements. use pll dedicated clock outputs to ensure jitter performance Please give your suggestions on this.
