Cyclone V custom board VCCIO puzzling behavior

Dear Intel and all,

 

I am working on Cyclone V soc 5CSEBA5U19C8N.
There is a very puzzling VCCIO behavior.
According to "Cyclone® V Device Family Pin Connection Guidelines
PCG-01014-3.2".

Any 3.0 below VCCIO must use a VCCPD with 2.5V.
I am supplying VCCIO of bank 3B+4A with VCCPD 2.5V and the VCCIO is using 1.2V.
However when measuring the VCCIO rail the voltage raised to almost 1.5V.

Before the FPGA chip is applied the voltage rail is able to measure clean 1.2V which eliminates the DCDC issue.

This is very puzzling, please FAE or Intel employee support.

 

Thank you

There are new measured data.

If I attached a simple 10k resistor to the 1.2V rail. it will drop back to normal 1.2 range.
But the loaded /w 10k is still measuring 40mV higher than unloaded DCDC w/o the FPGA chip.
So there are some leakage current inside the diode path? from VCCPD to VCCIO?

@Farabi 

 

Please do investigate with internal and provide solution and possible causes on such behavior.

This ensure other designer and user should know what VCCPD and VCCIO could be supported.

 

Bests,

Brian
