2.3.5 Unused Pin Configurations
In cases where certain interfaces are not used, the associated pins need to be configured properly. For
example, the pins of an unused crystal oscillator can be left floating (DNC) and must not be grounded. If
a PLL is not used or bypassed, and only the divider circuitry is used, then the PLL’s pins can be powered
without RC filter circuitry.
For SmartFusion2/IGLOO2 devices with multiple SerDes blocks, designers should tie off unused SerDes
blocks, as shown in Figure 4, page 14.
For banks configured as LPDDR or single-ended I/O (and MDDR or FDDR functionalities are not being
used), VREFx can be left floating (DNC) even though the corresponding bank supply is still powered.
To allow a SmartFusion2/IGLOO2 device to exit from reset, some of the bank supplies (VDDIx) must
always be powered, even if associated bank I/O are unused (as shown in Table 6, page 15 and Table 9,
page 17).
For details on bank locations for all the devices, see DS0115: SmartFusion2 Pin Descriptions Datasheet
or DS0124: IGLOO2 Pin Descriptions Datasheet.
