  1. For correct operation, all supplies except V REF must be held in their valid operation range. This is true independent of feature usage.
  2. All supplies with same voltage, except SERDES Power Supplies, should be connected together.
  3. See recommended voltages by I/O standard in Table 3.4.
  4. VCCAUX ramp rate must not exceed 30 mV/μs during power-up when transitioning between 0 V and 3 V.
  5. Refer to ECP5 and ECP5-5G SERDES/PCS Usage Guide (FPGA-TN-02206) for information on board considerations for SERDES power supplies.
  6. VCCHRX is used for Rx termination. It can be biased to Vcm if external AC coupling is used. This voltage needs to meet all the HDin input voltage level requirements specified in the Rx section of this Data Sheet.
