Clock
Description
outclk_4
200 MHz. Used to drive the ALTDLL IP core. The following are the ALTDLL
minimum frequency:
• Arria V devices: 200 MHZ
• Arria V GZ: 300 MHz
outclk_5
200 MHz. Used to drive the full-rate core clock.
outclk_6
100 MHz. Used to drive the half-rate core clock.
outclk_7
25 MHz. Used as config_clk.
Note: lf the memory frequency is less than the ALTDLL IP core minimum frequency, then drive the
ALTDLL IP core at 2x or 4x of the memory frequency. Relatively, the DQS phase settings decrease
as well.
