Cyclone 10GX Differential termination

[dkurgs]

Greetings all,

we are designing a PCB including the Cyclone 10GX220 and were slightly confused by the datasheet.
We wish to terminate an incoming LVDS pair using the normal 100 Ohm differential termination (the datasheet calls it RD).
Do we still need to calibrate the OCT? Should we still connect an external OCT calibration resistor to the bank's RZQ pin?

Thanks!

Hi Daniels

Thanks for your inquiry.

If you have the OCT enabled for the FPGA, you do not need external termination. There is no calibration needed for Rd OCT.

Thanks.
