15 years agoPLL in LVDS mode, Cyclone II
Apologies if this has been covered before, I did a quick search of the forum..
This is my first time using LVDS with our Cyclone II device. I've used the ALTLVDS megafunction deserialiser and it seem to be just what I want. So far so good. I also want to create a 10x LVDS clock output using a PLL. I can't get the "Create PLL in LVDS mode" button to light up. Does this not work in Cyclone II? If I try to define a standard PLL pin output as LVDS, the fitter rejects it. If I send a single ended PLL clock signal to a LVDS pin as an output, it moans about jitter. Am I attempting the impossibe?? :-) Pete
