Table 3-12: PLL Attributes

Attribute

Type

Allowed Values

Default

Description

CLKOUT[0:1]_DIVIDE

Integer

1 to 128

1

Specifies the amount to divide the associated CLKOUT clock output if a different frequency is desired. This number, in combination with the CLKFBOUT_MULT values, determines the output frequency.

CLKOUT[0:1]_ DUTY_CYCLE

Real

0.01 to 0.99

0.50

Specifies the duty cycle of the associated CLKOUT clock output in percentages (i.e., 0.50 generates a 50% duty cycle).

CLKFBOUT_MULT

Boolean

1 to 19

5

This CLKFBOUT_MULT range applies to UltraScale devices. Specifies the amount to multiply all CLKOUT clock outputs if a different frequency is desired. This number, in combination with the associated CLKOUT#_DIVIDE value and DIVCLK_DIVIDE value, determines the output frequency.

CLKFBOUT_MULT

Integer

2 to 21

5

This CLKFBOUT_MULT range applies to UltraScale+ devices. Specifies the amount to multiply all CLKOUT clock outputs if a different frequency is desired. This number, in combination with the associated CLKOUT#_DIVIDE value and DIVCLK_DIVIDE value, determines the output frequency.

DIVCLK_DIVIDE

Integer

1 to 15

1

Specifies the division ratio for all output clocks with respect to the input clock.

REF_JITTER

Real

0.000 to 0.999

0.010

Allows specification of the expected jitter on the reference clock to better optimize PLL performance. A bandwidth setting of OPTIMIZED attempts to choose the best parameter for input clocking when unknown. If known, the value provided should be specified in terms of the unit interval (UI) (the maximum peak-to-peak value) of the expected jitter on the input clock.

CLKIN_PERIOD

Real

0.938 to 14.286

0.000

Specifies the input period in ns to the PLL CLKIN input. Resolution is down to the ps. This information is mandatory and must be supplied.

STARTUP_WAIT

String

FALSE, TRUE

FALSE

Wait during the configuration start-up cycle for the PLL to lock.

CLKOUT[0:1]_PHASE

Real

–360.000 to 360.000

0.000

Allows specification of the output phase relationship of the associated CLKOUT clock output in number of degrees offset (i.e., 90 indicates a 90° offset or ¼ cycle phase offset while 180 indicates a 180° offset or ½ cycle phase offset). Valid phase shifts are in 360 ¸ CLKOUT[0:1]_DIVIDE degree increments.

CLKFBOUT_PHASE

Real

–360.000 to 360.000

Specifies the phase offset in degrees of the clock feedback output. Shifting the feedback clock results in a negative phase shift of all output clocks to the PLL. Valid phase shifts are in 360 ¸ CLKFBOUT_MULT degree increments.

COMPENSATION

String

AUTO (1) ,

PHY_ALIGN,
BUF_IN,
INTERNAL

AUTO

Clock input compensation. Must be set to AUTO. Defines how the PLL feedback is configured.

INTERNAL: Indicates that the PLL is using its own internal feedback path so no delay is being compensated.

BUF_IN: Indicates that the clock network delay within the same XIPHY bank is compensated. Both CLKIN and CLKFB must be the same frequency at the PFD (F IN /D = F VCO /M).

The feedback must be limited to within the same XIPHY and cannot be routed to adjacent banks or outside the device.

PHY_ALIGN (for UltraScale+ devices only): allows fine- grained adjustments of the PLL output phase for the alignment of the XIPHY and internal logic flip-flops using the same source clock. Primarily for memory controller use.

CLKOUTPHY_MODE

String

VCO_2X,
VCO,
VCO_HALF

VCO_2X

Determines the clock output frequency based on the VCO frequency for the BITSLICE_CONTROL block.

Notes:

1. The specifications for the VCO frequencies PLL_FVCOMIN/PLL_FVCOMAX and minimum out frequency PLL_FOUTMIN are different for the UltraScale and UltraScale+ families. Consult the appropriate data sheets.
