PLL input clock inclk[0] is not f ully compensated because it is fed by a remote clock pin - PLL input clock inclk[0] is not f ully compensated because it is fed by a remote clock pin Hello I have a design for a Cyclone 10 LP FPGA with a PLL that is fed from a clock-dedicated pin. The PLL was generated in "Normal Mode", however I'm getting this Critical Warning Critical Warning (176598): PLL "..." input clock inclk[0] is not f ully compensated because it is fed by a remote clock pin "Pin_M1" File: ... I'm not 100% familiar with the clock architectures of Intel devices. Can someone explain me what this means? Am I not suppose to use this mode when using an external pin as a clock input? Thanks!

Replies: Re: PLL input clock inclk[0] is not f ully compensated because it is fed by a remote clock pin Hi Diego, Please refer Figure 38 of Intel® Cyclone® 10 LP Core Fabric and General Purpose I/Os Handbook ( https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/hb/cyclone-10/c10lp-51003.pdf ) Each PLL has dedicated input pins, indicated by a solid line and dotted line. The solid line are the dedicated pins for that particular PLL. For example, PLL_1 has CLK[3:0]. However, PLL_1 can also be driven by other dedicated pins CLK[15:12}, but they are not associated ones for PLL_1. Refer statement in section 4.2.4 "Input and output delays are fully compensated by the PLL only if you are using the dedicated clock input pins associated with a given PLL as the clock sources." To avoid the warning, use associated dedicated pins for the PLL. Regards
