K7 problem of HR BANK LVDS signals selected

[pangxingwang6891@sina.com]

Hello everyone:

      I am using FPGA of K7 series , if I use LVDS signals in HR Bank of K7 , The VCCO of HR Bank must be setted  to 2.5V  .

if I set the Vcco to 3.3V , the board can work normally?

TKS!!

Hi,

Hi,

You can refer to the table 1-55 of the UG471, Table 1-55: VCCO and VREF Requirements for Each Supported I/O Standard

if the LVDS_25 is input without DIFF_TERM=TRUE the VCCO can be 3.3V, otherwise the VCCO must be 2.5V.

Hi,

Inputs can be driven by a different VCCO, only when you are not enabling the internal DIFF_TERM.

It is acceptable to have LVDS inputs in HP I/O banks even if the VCCO level is not 1.8V.  LVDS outputs (and therefore bidirectional LVDS) can only be used in a bank powered at 1.8V.
Similarly, it is acceptable to have LVDS_25 inputs in HR I/O banks even if the VCCO level is not 2.5V.  LVDS_25 outputs (and therefore bidirectional LVDS_25) can only be used in a bank powered at 2.5V.

However, the following must be true:

1. The DIFF_TERM attribute must be FALSE - meaning, you will need to use an external differential termination resistor.
2. Ensure that the VOD and VOCM levels of the driving device fall within the range of VIDIFF and VICM of the 7 series receiver, and that the VIN in Table 1 and 2 of the data sheet are not violated.

If you use LVDS-25 output then we recommend to connect VCCO = 2.5V.

In case if LVDS-25 is input, then you can use VCCO = 3.3V banks . No problem.

TKS for your answer！

Hello,
We are using a Xilinx 35T device, with Bank14 (powered at 2.5V) having a LVDS input clock.
The same constraints were made in the xdc file. However implementation throws the following error:
[Drc 23-20] Rule violation (BIVB-1) Bank IO standard Support - Bank 14 has incompatible IO(s) because: The LVDS I/O standard is not supported. Move the following ports or change their properties:
CLK_IN_PLL

In my understanding all banks support LVDS I/O standard. Please advise.
Thanks,

The HR bank uses the LVDS_25 IOSTANDARD not the LVDS IOSTANDARD.
