I am using a Cyclone 10 GX device. Can I use a 1.2 V LVCMOS output pin in an I/O bank with VCCIO of 1.8 V? In the same I/O bank, can I also use LVDS input pins and differential SSTL-12 output pins with on-chip calibration? I read the I/O handbooks, but I cannot find the answer.

Hello,
Yes there is. You can use Chip/Pin Planner under Assignment tab on your Quartus.
This is the tutorial video that you can refer to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bt-yDRReKZw
We have a few tutorial videos that you can refer to on our Youtube channel: Intel FPGA
Hope this helps.
Amin.

Hello,
You can only use 1.2 V Vccio for input and output of 1.2 V LVCMOS.
The Intel Cyclone 10 GX devices support OCT in all FPGA I/O banks. For the 3 V I/Os,
the I/Os support only OCT without calibration. OCT with calibration is available for LVDS I/O and so as Differential SSTL-12.
You may look for further details on your device GPIO document: https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/hb/cyclone-10/c10gx-51003.pdf
Thank you,
Amin

Thank Amin for your reply.
Can you clarify the following general rule? Per "Intel Cyclone® 10 GX Core Fabric and General Purpose I/Os Handbook" (C10GX51003 | 2020.09.25) Page 91, Table 34,
1) for a 1.2 V LVCMOS output pin, must VCCIO be 1.2 V?
2) for a differential SSTL-12 output pin, must VCCIO be 1.2 V?
3) for an LVDS output pin, , must VCCIO be 1.8 V?

Hello,
1) for a 1.2 V LVCMOS output pin, must VCCIO be 1.2 V?
Yes.
2) for a differential SSTL-12 output pin, must VCCIO be 1.2 V?
Yes for the Vccio output pin.
3) for an LVDS output pin, , must VCCIO be 1.8 V?
LVDS I/O bank supports differential and single-ended I/O standards up to 1.8 V.
Thank you.

Thank you for your further clarification. Your answer to my third question is still ambiguous. LVDS has two meanings in the handbook, the general LVDS /IO bank (comparing with the 3 V I/O bank) and the specific LVDS I/O standard (comparing with SSTL-12). What I am asking is the specific LVDS I/O standard, while your answer is about the I/O bank. For an output pin in the LVDS I/O standard, must VCCIO be 1.8 V?

Hello,
Yes you need Vccio 1.8 V output for. LVDS I/O Standard.
Thank you.

Is there any way to assign in the Quartus software what the VCCIO of a specific I/O bank is, in addition to the I/O standard of a specific pin?
