Cyclone III JTAG connection

[Altera_Forum]

i am using Cyclone III for one of our new designs, the bank 1 is using IO standard of 2.5V, as per the pin user guide it says that TMS and TDI should be connected to VCCA through pull up resistor. My question is that ok to use PLL power supply i.e. VCCA for JTAG configuartion will it affect any way in PLL performance?

No, it won't - so long as you don't cause your 2.5V rail to droop. I've done several C3 designs with bank 1's VCCIO at 3.3 (since I'm using generic M25P16 SPI flash parts), and used the same 2.5V VDDA_PLL to pull up the JTAG lines. 

 Keep in mind that the JTAG lines aren't going to be pulling much current normally, since you are just putting in pull-ups. There is a slight chance of introducing noise, but it should be fairly low-frequency; and certainly below the minimum frequency of the PLL's. I've certainly not seen any issues with it, and I've been doing this for a while now.
