Table 3–8 describes the options available on the Half-rate page.
DQ Output Enable
Options
Enable DQ output
enable delay
chain2
— USE_DQ_OE_DELAY_
CHAIN2
Enables _OE_DELAY_CHAIN2 (D6) in the DQ OE
path. This parameter is used for deskew purposes or
SSN reduction. D6 is a run-time adjustable delay chain.
For more information about configuring delay chains
dynamically, refer to
“Delay Chains” on page 4–15 .
DQ Output Enable
Options
DQ output enable
register mode
Not used, FF,
or DDIO DQ_OE_REG_MODE Enables the full-rate DQ output-enable registers
(
_OE_FF or _OE_DDIO_OE registers).
Select FF if you want flip-flop registers or DDIO if you
want double data rate I/O registers.

IO Clock Divider
Source Core,
‘dqs_bus_ou
t’ port, or
Inverted
‘dqs_bus_ou
t’ port IO_CLOCK_DIVIDER_
CLK_SOURCE
Specifies the I/O clock divider clock source which can be
from the Core (FPGA), the ‘dqs_bus_out’ port (DQS
input path), or the Inverted ‘dqs_bus_out’ port (DQS
input path).
Altera recommends that you turn on the ‘dqs_bus_out’
port option to clock the DQ input register. When reading
from the external memory, the DQ data that comes from
the full-rate DQ input registers must be synchronized to
the half-rate input block, if half-rate interfaces are used.
If the full-rate DQ input registers are clocked by the DQS
input path via the
dqs_bus_out port, then the I/O
clock divider (and other clock source settings) must also
be clocked via the
dqs_bus_out port.
Create
‘io_clock_divider
_masterin’ input
port — USE_IO_CLOCK_
DIVIDER_MASTERIN
Enables the masterin input to synchronize this divider
with another I/O clock divider. If you turn off this option,
this divider operates independently. This mode is meant
for the master divider of a group of dividers. Turn on this
parameter when you chain the I/O clock divider blocks
from multiple ALTDQ_DQS instances.
Create
‘io_clock_divider
_clkout’ output
port — — Divides the clock output signal by two. The clock out
signal can be connected to the clock input of a half-rate
Input block or fed to the FPGA core.
