Clock Output from Left and Right PLLs in the FPGA Fabric
You can use the synthesized clock output from one of the left or right PLLs to provide
the input reference clock to the CMU PLLs, 6G ATX PLLs, and receiver CDRs.
Stratix IV devices provide a dedicated clock path from the left PLLs (PLL_L1, PLL_L2,
PLL_L3, and PLL_L4) in the FPGA fabric to the PLL cascade network located on the left
side of the device. Stratix IV devices also provide a dedicated clock path from the
right PLLs (PLL_R1, PLL_R2, PLL_R3, and PLL_R4) in the FPGA fabric to the PLL
cascade network located on the right side of the device. The additional clock
multiplication factors available in the left and right PLLs allow more options for
on-board crystal oscillator frequencies.
The CMU PLL synthesizes the input reference clock to generate the high-speed serial
clock used in the transmitter PMA. The receiver CDR synthesizes the input reference
clock in lock-to-reference (LTR) mode to generate the high-speed serial clock.
This high-speed serial clock output from the CMU PLL and the receiver CDR runs at a
frequency that is half the configured data rate. The CMU PLLs and receiver CDRs
only support multiplication factors (M) of 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, and 25. If you use an
on-board crystal oscillator to provide the input reference clock through the dedicated
refclk pins or ITB lines, the allowed crystal frequencies are limited by the CMU PLL
and the receiver CDR multiplication factors. The input reference clock frequencies are
also limited by the allowed phase frequency detector (PFD) frequency range.
Example 1: Channel Configuration with a 4 Gbps Data Rate
Consider a channel configured for a 4 Gbps data rate. The high-speed serial clock
output from the CMU PLL and the receiver CDR must run at 2 Gbps.
the allowed input reference clock frequencies for Example 1.
For a 4 Gbps data rate, the Quartus II software only allows an input reference clock
frequency of 80, 100, 125, 160, 200, 250, 400, and 500 MHz. To overcome this limitation,
Stratix IV devices allow the synthesized clock output from the left and right PLLs in
the FPGA fabric to drive the CMU PLL and receiver CDR input reference clock. The
additional clock multiplication factors available in the left and right PLLs allow more
options for on-board crystal oscillator frequencies.
