Chapter 6: I/O Features in the Cyclone III Device Family
Termination Scheme for I/O Standards
Voltage-Referenced I/O Standard Termination
Voltage-referenced I/O standards require an input reference voltage (V
REF
) and a
termination voltage (V
TT
). The reference voltage of the receiving device tracks the
termination voltage of the transmitting device, as shown in
and
