Same PCB for the two CY4 FPGAs EP4CGX150CF23C8N & EP4CGX30CF23C8N - Same PCB for the two CY4 FPGAs EP4CGX150CF23C8N & EP4CGX30CF23C8N
In order to support one PCB the two CY4 FPGAs EP4CGX150CF23C8N & EP4CGX30CF23C8N, Need to connect additional I/O pins of EP4CGX30CF23C8N (see below) to GND/VCCINT (1.2V) I compile EP4CGX150CF23C8N with Migration to EP4CGX30CF23C8N, as expected at the project.pin report the pins connected to GND/VCCINT for example: my question is if I assembled EP4CGX30CF23C8N and pin H16 (for example) connected to VCCINT(1.2V) , is it ok or Should I add serial resistor to the VCCINT pins in order to disconnect it when I use the EP4CGX30CF23C8N? Thanks & Best Regards, Israel Ben-Yeda

Hi Israel Ben-Yeda, It is not mandatory. You can refer to the link below for more details about this issue. When migrating devices that have overlapping I/O and power pins, how... Regards, Aqid Ayman

Hi, It’s “good practice to add additional resistor “ or mandatory? Because it complicates the layout and can also hurt it (Hits VCCINT's polygon continuously), Thanks & Best Regards, Israel Ben-Yeda

Hello Israel Ben-Yeda, For me, it is a good practice to add additional resistor to the I/O pins even if you are not using it as it is connected to VCCINT.

Thanks, I don't need to use those pins as I/Os, so I don't need the resistor? GX30 IO pin should have no problems connecting to VCCINT? Thanks & Best Regards, Israel Ben-Yeda

Hello Israel Ben-Yeda, If you plan to use those pins as GPIOs, then you may add the resistor and put DNI.

Generally, supported device migration doesn't require jumper resistors or similar, GX30 IO pin should have no problems to connect to VCCINT. Frank - 2022-06-28
