10.1.3.1 set_iobank

This PDC command sets the input/output supply voltage (vcci) and the input reference voltage (vref) for the specified I/O bank.

All banks have a dedicated vref pin. Do not set any pin on these banks. There are two types of I/O banks:

  • General-Purpose IO (GPIO)
  • High-Speed IO (HSIO)

Setting the iobanks is recommended to ensure that banks are set as expected. If not set, following are the default bank settings:

  • The bank will not have any settings if there is no I/O placed on the bank.
  • The first I/O placed on the bank will be used to set the bank. Example: If we place an I/O with IOSTD LVCMOS25, the bank will be set to 2.5V.
  • If I/Os are not placed by the user, the tool sets the banks as needed and place the I/Os.

The following table lists the set_iobank standards. Each bank type supports a different set of I/O standards.

The following example provides the usages of the set_iobank command with the supported arguments described.

set_iobank -bank_name <bank_name>\ 
[-vcci <vcci_voltage>]\ 
[-vref <vref_voltage>]\ 
[-fixed <value>]\ 
[-update_iostd <value>]\ 
[-auto_calib <value>]\ 
[-auto_calib_ramp_time <value>]

Arguments

-bank_name
Specifies the name of the bank. I/O banks are numbered 0 through N (Bank 0, Bank 1, …, Bank N). The number of I/O banks varies with the device. See the data sheet for your device to determine how many banks it has.
-vcci <vcci_voltage>
Sets the input/output supply voltage. Enter one of the values in the following table.

-vref <vref_voltage>
Sets the input reference voltage. Enter one of the values in the following table.

0.67V SSTL135I, HSTL135I
-fixed <value>
Specifies whether the I/O technologies (vcci and vccr voltages) assigned to the bank are locked. Enter one of the values in the following table.
Table 10-8. -fixed Values
Value Description
True The technologies are locked.
False The technologies are not locked.
-update_iostd <value>
For I/Os placed on the bank, this command specifies whether placement is kept, and the host is changed to one that is compatible with this bank setting.
Table 10-9. -update_iostd Values
Value Description
True If there are I/Os placed on the bank, you keep the placement and change the host to one that is compatible with this bank setting. Check the I/O attributes to see the one used by the tool.
False If I/Os are placed and locked on the bank, the command fails. If they are placed I/Os, they are unplaced.
-auto_calib <value>

Specifies whether the I/O bank is auto-calibrated at power-up or not. Values are true or false. The default value is true.

Note: This argument is not supported for MPF300TS_ES, MPF300T_ES, and MPF300XT devices.
-auto_calib_ramp_time <value>

Specifies the I/O bank VDDI supply ramp time (in ms), if the I/O bank is auto-calibrated. Values are 1–50. The default value is 50.

Note: Not supported for MPF300TS_ES, MPF300T_ES, and MPF300XT devices.

Exceptions

Any pins assigned to the specified I/O bank that are incompatible with the default technology are unassigned.

Examples

The following example assigns 3.3V to the input/output supply voltage (vcci) for I/O bank 0.
