ORCA Series 2 FPGAs
Pin Information (continued)
Compatibility with Series 3 FPGAs
Pinouts for the OR2CxxA, OR2TxxA, and OR2TxxB devices will be consistent with the Series 3 FPGAs for all
devices offered in the same packages. This includes the following pins: VDD, VSS, VDD5 (OR3C/Txxx series only),
and all configuration pins. Identical to the OR2TxxB devices, Series 3 devices provide 5 V tolerant I/Os without a
dedicated VDD5 supply
The following restrictions apply:
1. There are two configuration modes supported in the OR2C/TxxA series that are not supported in the
Series 3 FPGAs series: master parallel down and synchronous peripheral modes. The Series 3 FPGAs have two
new microprocessor interface (MPI) configuration modes that are unavailable in the Series 2.
2. There are 4 pins—one per each device side—that are user I/O in the OR2C/TxxA series which can only be used
as fast dedicated clocks or global inputs in the Series 3 series. These pins are also used to drive the Express-
CLK to the I/O FFs on their given side of the device. These four middle ExpressCLK pins should not be used to
connect to a programmable clock manager (PCM). A corner ExpressCLK input should be used instead (see note
below). See Table 18C for a list of these pins in each package.
3. There are two other pins that are user I/O in both the Series 2 and Series 3 series but also have optional added
functionality in the Series 3 series. Each of these pins drives the ExpressCLKs on two sides of the device. They
also have fast connectivity to the programmable clock manager (PCM). See Table 18C for a preliminary list of
these pins in each package.

Note: The ECKR, ECKL, ECKT, and ECKB pins drive the ExpressCLK on their given edge of the device, while I/O—SECKLL and
I/O—SECKUR drive an ExpressCLK on two edges of the device and provide connectivity to the programmable clock manager.
