Schmitt Trigger Input
Cyclone IV devices support Schmitt trigger input on the
TDI
,
TMS
,
TCK
,
nSTATUS
,
nCONFIG
,
nCE
,
CONF_DONE
, and
DCLK
pins. A Schmitt trigger feature introduces
hysteresis to the input signal for improved noise immunity, especially for signals with
slow edge rate. Table 1–14 lists the hysteresis specifications across the supported
V
CCIO
range for Schmitt trigger inputs in Cyclone IV devices.
I/O Standard Specifications
The following tables list input voltage sensitivities (V
IH
and V
IL
), output voltage (V
OH
and V
OL
), and current drive characteristics (I
OH
and I
OL
), for various I/O standards
supported by Cyclone IV devices. Table 1–15 through Table 1–20 provide the I/O
standard specifications for Cyclone IV devices.

Notes to Table 1–15:
(1) For voltage-referenced receiver input waveform and explanation of terms used in Table 1–15, refer to “Glossary” on page 1–37.
(2) AC load CL = 10 pF
(3) For more information about interfacing Cyclone IV devices with 3.3/3.0/2.5
-V LVTTL/LVCMOS I/O standards, refer to AN 447: Interfacing Cyclone III
and Cyclone IV Devices with 3.3/3.0/2.5-V LVTTL/LVCMOS I/O Systems.
(4) To meet the I
OL and IOH specifications, you must set the current strength settings accordingly. For example, to meet the 3.3-V LVTTL specification (4
mA), set the current strength settings to 4 mA or higher. Setting at lower current strength may not meet the I
OL and IOH specifications in the handbook.
