Description
Data input. In serial configuration modes, bit-wide
configuration data is presented to the target Cyclone III
device family on the DATA[0]pin.
In AS mode, DATA[0]has an internal pull-up resistor that is
always active. After AS configuration, DATA[0]is a dedicated
input pin with optional user control.

After PS or FPP configuration, DATA[0]is available as a user
I/O pin and the state of this pin depends on the Dual-Purpose
Pin settings.
After AP configuration, DATA[0]is a dedicated bidirectional

pin with optional user control.
Data input in non-AS mode. Control signal from the
Cyclone III device family to the serial configuration device in
AS mode used to read out configuration data. The DATA[1]
pin functions as the ASDOpin in AS mode.
In AS mode, DATA[1]has an internal pull-up resistor that is
always active. After AS configuration, DATA[1]is a dedicated
output pin with optional user control.

Bidirectional
In PS configuration scheme, DATA[1]functions as user I/O
pin during configuration, which means it is tri-stated.

Pin settings.
(AP)
In AP configuration scheme, which is for Cyclone III devices
only, the byte-wide or word-wide configuration data is
presented to the target Cyclone III device on DATA[7..0]or
DATA[15..0], respectively. After AP configuration, DATA[1]

In AS or PS configuration schemes, they function as user I/O
pins during configuration, which means they are tri-stated.
After FPP configuration, DATA[7..2]are available as user
I/O pins and the state of these pin depends on the
Dual-Purpose Pin settings.
