CLOAD = 10 pF
column IOE output register with regional clock fed by CLK
pin
tINSUPLL
Setup time for input or bidirectional pin using column IOE
input register with regional clock fed by Enhanced PLL with
default phase setting
tINHPLL
Hold time for input or bidirectional pin using column IOE
input register with regional clock fed by Enhanced PLL with
default phase setting
tOUTCOPLL
Clock-to-output delay output or bidirectional pin using
column IOE output register with regional clock Enhanced

Notes to Table 6–52:
(1) These timing parameters are sample-tested only.
(2) These timing parameters are for column IOE pins. Row IOE pins are 100- to 250-ps slower depending on device,
speed grade, and the specific parameter in question. You should use the Quartus II software to verify the external
timing for any pin.
Table 6–53 shows the external I/O timing parameters when using global
clock networks.
