  1. Like power supplies must be tied together if they are at the same supply voltage and they meet the power up sequence requirement. See the Power-up Supply Sequence section. VCC and VCCPLL are recommended to be tied together to the same supply with an RC-based noise filter between them. Refer to iCE40 Hardware Checklist (FPGA-TN-02006).
  2. See recommended voltages by I/O standard in subsequent table.
  3. VCCIO pins of unused I/O banks should be connected to the VCC power supply on boards.
  4. VPP_2V5 can, optionally, be connected to a 1.8 V (+/-5%) power supply in Slave SPI Configuration modes subject to the condition that none of the HFOSC/LFOSC and RGB LED driver features are used. Otherwise, VPP_2V5 must be connected to a power supply with a minimum 2.30 V level.
