Version
Changes
2018.06.15 Made the following change:
• For fPLL IP Core, added OTN_direct, SATA_Gen3 and HDMI to the range for Protocol Mode.
2017.11.06 Made the following changes:
• Updated the "ATX PLL-to-ATX PLL Spacing Guidelines" section with GT channels information.
• Added note "Sourcing reference clock from a cascaded PLL output, global clock or core clock
network will introduce additional jitter to transmit PLL output. Refer to KDB "How do I compensate
for the jitter of PLL cascading or non-dedicated clock path for Arria 10 PLL reference clock?" for
more details."
• Added guidance for jitter compliance for data rates >10 Gbps in the following sections:
— "fPLL"
— "CMU PLL"
— "Input Reference Clock Sources"

• New section Unused/Idle Clock Line Requirements added.
2016.05.02 • Updated ATX PLL, fPLL and CMU PLL parameters.
• Updated ATX PLL and fPLL ports.
• Added new parameters and ports when fPLL is used in core mode.
• Provided additional details for ATX PLL and fPLL fractional mode usage in the "Delta Sigma
Modulator" section.
• Added a new section describing "ATX PLL multi-profile and embedded reconfiguration".
2016.02.11 Made the following changes:
