The ports listed in
only exist when you target Stratix III and Stratix IV
devices. You can leave them unconnected if you are not using user-mode calibrated
OCT. For more information about Stratix III and Stratix IV ports, refer to
ALTMEMPHY Signals sect
reset_request_n
output
1
Directly connected to the locked output of the PLL and is
intended for optional use either by automated tools such
as SOPC Builder or could be manually ANDed with any
other system-level signals and combined with any edge
detect logic as required and then fed back to the
global_reset_n
input.
Reset request output that indicates when the PLL outputs
are not locked. Use this as a reset request input to any
system-level reset controller you may have. This signal is
always low while the PLL is locking (but not locked), and
so any reset logic using it is advised to detect a reset
request on a falling-edge rather than by level detection.
aux_half_rate_clk
output
1
A copy of the phy_clk_1x signal that you can use in
other parts of your design, same as phy_clk port.
aux_full_rate_clk
output
1
A copy of the mem_clk_2x signal that you can use in
other parts of your design.
Note to
(1) Refer to
for the reset mechanism in Arria GX, Stratix II and Stratix II GX devices.

Description
oct_ctl_rs_value
input
14
Specifies serial termination value. Connects to the
seriesterminationcontrol
bus of the ALT_OCT
megafunction. This port exists when you target Stratix IV and
Stratix III devices only.
oct_ctl_rt_value
input
14
Specifies parallel termination value. Connects to the
parallelterminationcontrol
bus of the ALT_OCT
megafunction. This port exists when you target Stratix IV and
Stratix III devices only.
Notes to
(1) These ports are available if you want to use user-mode OCT calibration. Otherwise, they can be left unconnected.
