2.9.5 VREF Usage
I/O standards referenced using VREF can be used on the Mercury module connector. The reference voltage
has to be applied to all VREF pins of the respective I/O banks. If a bank is configured to use an I/O standard
that does not need a reference voltage, the VREF pins of this bank on the module connector are available
as user I/O pins.
The VREF pins are listed in the Mercury Master Pinout Excel Sheet [11].
Warning!
Use only VREF voltages compliant with the equipped SoC device; any other voltages may damage the
equipped SoC device, as well as other devices on the Mercury ZX1 SoC module.
Do not leave a VREF pin floating when the used I/O standard requires a reference voltage, as this may
damage the equipped SoC device, as well as other devices on the Mercury ZX1 SoC module.
2.9.6 VCC_IO Usage
The VCC_IO voltages for the I/O banks located on the module connector are configurable by applying the
required voltage to the VCC_IO_B[x], respectively VCC_CFG_[x] pins. All VCC_IO_B[x] or VCC_CFG_[x] pins of
the same bank must be connected to the same voltage.
For compatibility with other Enclustra Mercury modules, it is recommended to use a single I/O voltage per
module connector.
The high performance (HP) I/O banks 33 and 34 are protected against too high supply voltages. If a voltage
higher than 2.2 V is applied to the corresponding supply inputs on the module connector, the supply pins
of the SoC device are disconnected, and the device is held in reset.

The DDR3 SDRAM supports voltages of 1.5 or 1.35 V. Please refer to Sections 2.15 and 2.16 for details.
