Transceiver Speed Grade 5 covers specifications for Cyclone V GT and ST devices.
(31)
(32)
Differential LVPECL signal levels must comply to the minimum and maximum peak-to-peak differential input voltage specified in this table.
The reference clock frequency must be ≥ 307.2 MHz to be fully compliance to CPRI transmit jitter specification at 6.144 Gbps. For more information
about CPRI 6.144 Gbps, refer to the Transceiver Protocol Configurations in Cyclone V Devices chapter.
REFCLK performance requires to meet transmitter REFCLK phase noise specification.
