2.3 EP80579 External Clock Requirements
External clocks are supplied to EP80579 internal PLLs as the reference clocks and to
other I/O devices. EP80579 has internal PLLs that use these reference clocks to
generate internal clocks. Table 5 shows the external clocks requirements for EP80579.
These clocks shall always be sourced by the platform to EP80579 in all designs,
regardless of whether the referenced interface is implemented or not implemented on
the board.
