When I assigned the pins name in the assignement editor I don't know which caracteristic I must have to this pins. hope I was clear and thank you a lot for your replay. --- Quote End --- As discussed in many similar threads, you don't need an ALTIOBUF primitive to assign LVDS in- or outputs. Just assign an LVDS IO standard to the non-inverted pin of a differential pair. Quartus will supplement the inverted pin assignment automatically. Stratix family FPGA have dedicated LVDS in- and output drivers. You can only assign one of the dedicated drivers. The Quartus Pin Planner can ease this operation, because it knows about available pin locations.
