Input Data Delaymicro tSUmicro tHInput Clock DelayFor output timing, different I/O standards require different baseline loading techniques for reporting timing delays. Altera characterizes timing delays with the required termination for each I/O standard and with 0 pF (except for PCI and PCI-X which use 10 pF) loading and the timing is specified up to the output pin of the FPGA device. The
QuartusII software calculates the I/O timing for each I/O standard with a default baseline loading as specified by the I/O standards.
The following measurements are made during device characterization. Altera measures clock-to-output delays (tCO) at worst-case process,
minimum voltage, and maximum temperature (PVT) for default loading conditions shown in Table5–34. Use the following equations to calculate clock pin to output pin timing for StratixII devices.
tCO from clock pin to I/O pin = delay from clock pad to I/O output register + IOE output register clock-to-output delay + delay from output register to output pin + I/O output delay
txz/tzx from clock pin to I/O pin = delay from clock pad to I/O output register + IOE output register clock-to-output delay + delay from output register to output pin + I/O output delay + output enable pin delay
Simulation using IBIS models is required to determine the delays on the PCB traces in addition to the output pin delay timing reported by the QuartusII software and the timing model in the device handbook.1.
Simulate the output driver of choice into the generalized test setup,using values from Table5–34.Record the time to VMEAS.
Simulate the output driver of choice into the actual PCB trace andload, using the appropriate IBIS model or capacitance value torepresent the load.

Notes to Table5–37:(1)(2)(3)(4)
These numbers apply to -3 speed grade EP2S15, EP2S30, EP2S60, and EP2S90 devices.These numbers apply to -3 speed grade EP2S130 and EP2S180 devices.
For the -3 and -5 speed grades, the minimum timing is for the commercial temperature grade. Only -4 speed grade devices offer the industrial temperature grade.
For the -4 speed grade, the first number is the minimum timing parameter for industrial devices. The second number is the minimum timing parameter for commercial devices.
