1 As noted in the HSMC specification, LVDS and single-ended I/O standards are only
guaranteed to function when mixed according to either the generic single-ended
pin-out or the generic differential pin-out.
Ta bl e 2–47 lists the HSMC Port A interface signal name, description, and I/O
standard. Signal name and direction are relative to the Cyclone III FPGA, which is the
HSMC host.
