OCT Calibration Block in Cyclone V Devices
You can calibrate the OCT using any of the available four OCT calibration blocks for each device. Each
calibration block contains one
RZQ
pin.
You can use R
S
and R
T
OCT in the same I/O bank for different I/O standards if the I/O standards use the
same V
CCIO
supply voltage. You cannot configure the R
S
OCT and the programmable current strength for
the same I/O buffer.
The OCT calibration process uses the
RZQ
pin that is available in every calibration block in a given I/O bank
for series- and parallel-calibrated termination:
• Connect the
RZQ
pin to GND through an external 100 Ω or 240 Ω resistor (depending on the R
S
or R
T
OCT value).
• The
RZQ
pin shares the same V
CCIO
supply voltage with the I/O bank where the pin is located.
Cyclone V devices support calibrated R
S
and calibrated R
T
OCT on all I/O pins except for dedicated
configuration pins.

Sharing an OCT Calibration Block on Multiple I/O Banks
An OCT calibration block has the same V
CCIO
as the I/O bank that contains the block. All I/O banks with
the same V
CCIO
can share one OCT calibration block, even if that particular I/O bank has an OCT calibration
block.
