DQ (ALTDQ) and DQS (ALTDQS) Megafunctions
How should the delay chain be
specified?
This can be either a setting in ps or a value
from 0-63. This is the user-requested delay on
the clock delay control block. Delay is specified
either by number of delay buffers used or
desired time delay. Time delay is converted to
number of buffers during compilation. For the
actual buffer delay, refer to the respective
device data sheet.
These buffers have a fixed delay, which is not
dependent on input clock frequency clock delay
control circuit on each DQS pin allows a phase
shift that center-aligns the incoming DQS
signals within the data window of their
corresponding DQ data signals.

Allow DQS to be disabled during
read post-amble.
Inhibits the ddioinclk signal during read
postamble (when the DQS transitions from 0 to
Z). Stops the ddioinclk signal from creating
false clocks as the DQS goes to tristate. If
selected, adds an enable_dqs input port to
stop the ddioinclk signal.
