Phase-Locked Loop Reconfiguration (ALTPLL_RECONFIG) Megafunction
February 2012
Altera Corporation
pll_areset_in
No
Input signal indicating that the PLL should be reset.
When asserted, the
pll_areset_in
signal indicates the PLL megafunction should
be reset. This port defaults to
0
if left unconnected. When the ALTPLL_RECONFIG
megafunction is used in a design, you cannot reset the PLL in any other way; you
must use this megafunction port to manually reset the PLL.
pll_scandone
No
Input port for the ALTPLL_RECONFIG megafunction that signals update done from
the PLL module. This port is driven by the PLL's
scandone
output signal and
determines when the PLL is reconfigured.
For Stratix III and Stratix IV devices,
pll_scandone
is asserted on most operations,
and deasserted as soon as it detects the assertion of
configupdate
. Upon the
completion of all PLL reconfiguration updates,
scandone
is reasserted.
This is different than the
scandone
signal in older device families, such as Stratix
devices. In Stratix devices, the
scandone
signal is deasserted most of the time. The
scandone
signal is asserted for 1 clock cycle to mark the completion of PLL
reconfiguration.
pll_scandataout
Yes
Input port driven by the
scandataout
signal from the ALTPLL megafunction. It can
be used to read the current configuration of the ALTPLL megafunction.
This input port holds the ALTPLL megafunction scan data output from the
dynamically reconfigurable bits. The
pll_scandataout
port must be connected to
the
scandataout
port of the PLL. The activity on this port can only be observed
when the
reconfig
signal is asserted.
rom_data_in
No
Serial data input to the PLL from the ROM.
This 1-bit port allows the external ROM to be serially written into the scan cache of
the ALTPLL_RECONFIG megafunction. The value on this port is valid 2 clock cycles
after the
write_rom_ena
signal is asserted and remains valid until 2 clock cycles
after the
write_rom_ena
signal is deasserted. This port is available for Stratix III,
Stratix IV, Cyclone III, Cyclone IV, HardCopy III, HardCopy IV, and Arria II GX devices
only.
write_from_rom
No
Specifies that the scan chain must be written from the external ROM.
When asserted, this signal tells the ALTPLL megafunction to write the scan cache
from the external ROM. At the next rising clock edge, the ALTPLL_RECONFIG
megafunction asserts the
write_rom_ena
signal and begins placing valid ROM
addresses on the
rom_address_out
port. Assert the
write_from_rom
signal for
1 clock cycle only. This port is available for Stratix III, Stratix IV, Cyclone III,
Cyclone IV, HardCopy III, HardCopy IV, and Arria II GX devices only.
reset_rom_address
No
Resets the ROM address.
When asserted, this signal tells the ALTPLL megafunction to restart the read from
ROM at address 0. Assert the
reset_rom_address
signal for 1 clock cycle only. This
port is available for Stratix III, Stratix IV, Cyclone III, Cyclone IV, HardCopy III,
HardCopy IV, and Arria II GX devices only.
