Slew-Rate Control
The output buffer for each Cyclone device I/O pin has a programmable
output slew-rate control that can be configured for low noise or
high-speed performance. A faster slew rate provides high-speed
transitions for high-performance systems. However, these fast transitions
may introduce noise transients into the system. A slow slew rate reduces
system noise, but adds a nominal delay to rising and falling edges. Each
I/O pin has an individual slew-rate control, allowing the designer to
specify the slew rate on a pin-by-pin basis. The slew-rate control affects
both the rising and falling edges.
Bus Hold
Each Cyclone device I/O pin provides an optional bus-hold feature. The
bus-hold circuitry can hold the signal on an I/O pin at its last-driven
state. Since the bus-hold feature holds the last-driven state of the pin until
the next input signal is present, an external pull-up or pull-down resistor
is not necessary to hold a signal level when the bus is tri-stated.
The bus-hold circuitry also pulls undriven pins away from the input
threshold voltage where noise can cause unintended high-frequency
switching. The designer can select this feature individually for each I/O
pin. The bus-hold output will drive no higher than V
overdriving signals. If the bus-hold feature is enabled, the device cannot
use the programmable pull-up option. Disable the bus-hold feature when
the I/O pin is configured for differential signals.
The bus-hold circuitry uses a resistor with a nominal resistance (RBH) of
approximately 7 kΩ to pull the signal level to the last-driven state.

used to identify the next-driven input level.
The bus-hold circuitry is only active after configuration. When going into
user mode, the bus-hold circuit captures the value on the pin present at
the end of configuration.
Programmable Pull-Up Resistor
Each Cyclone device I/O pin provides an optional programmable
pull-up resistor during user mode. If the designer enables this feature for
an I/O pin, the pull-up resistor (typically 25 kΩ) holds the output to the
V
optional programmable pull-up resistor.
