5.5.4.3. RT OCT with Calibration in Arria® 10 Devices

The Arria® 10 devices support RT OCT with calibration in all LVDS I/O banks but not in the 3 V I/O banks. RT OCT with calibration is available only for configuration of input and bidirectional pins. Output pin configurations do not support RT OCT with calibration. If you use RT OCT, the VCCIO of the bank must match the I/O standard of the pin where you enable the RT OCT.

Table 56.  Selectable I/O Standards for RT OCT With CalibrationThis table lists the input termination settings for calibrated OCT on different I/O standards.

The RT OCT calibration circuit compares the total impedance of the I/O buffer to the external resistor connected to the RZQ pin. The circuit dynamically enables or disables the transistors until the total impedance of the I/O buffer matches the external resistor.

Calibration occurs at the end of the device configuration. When the calibration circuit finds the correct impedance, the circuit powers down and stops changing the characteristics of the drivers.
