  • D2 is on PIN_3
  • D4 is on PIN_7
  • D5 is on PIN_9
  • key is on PIN_144

Pins 26 and 81 are tied to 1.2V and the default selection is to drive all unused pins to GND, making short circuit and that's why the onboard LM1117 1.2V regulator get really hot. You should go to Assignments->Device->Device and Pin Options...->Unused Pins and set it to "As input tri-stated with weak pull-up" (or "... with bus-hold circuitry"). Then everything stays cool.

DE1 I/O Pins

Clocks, buttons, switches, and seven segment displays.

The Cyclone II EP2C20F484C7 FPGA on the DE1 logic kit is connected to four seven segment displays, (Hex_0, Hex_1, Hex_2, and Hex_3), ten slide switches (Switch_0 through Switch_9), four push buttons (Key_0 through Key_3), ten red LEDs (Red_LED_0 through Red_LED_9), and eight green LEDs (Green_LED_0 through Green_LED_7).

The slide switches produce logic “1” when pushed away from the edge of the board, and the push buttons produce logic “0” when pressed. The segments of the seven segment displays light up when connected to logic “0,” and the LEDs light up when connected to logic “1”. The following table shows which FPGA pin numbers are connected to these devices.

The segments of a seven-segment display are normally named A–G, starting at the top, going clockwise, and ending with the center segment. The array names in the table refer to the segments using subscript values 0–6 in the same order.

To make the process of pin assignment easier, the following table is in alphabetical order, which should match the order of the pins listed by the Quartus Pin Assignment Editor, provided you name your pins and pin groups alphabetically: Clock… , Green… , Hex_0… , Hex_1… , Hex_2… , Hex_3… , Key… , Red… , and Switch… in that order.

Altera CycloneII Bidirectional Pin Assignment

  • Thread starter nag123
  • Start date Sep 16, 2008
  • Sep 16, 2008

Member level 1

altera bidirectional Hi all, I am new to altera FPGA design. I have got a problem on bidirectional io pin assignment. I have interfaced Altera CyclonII FPGA with a processor. The processor is able to write the data to FPGA. It's not reading FPGA data. All control srtrobes rd_en, wr_en and cs are ok. I have a doubt whether I assigned data bus correctly or not. Can anyone suggest me how to assign bidirectional pins? Do I need to set any constraint in assignment editor? Thanks  

Member level 5

@ltera CycloneII Bidirectional Pin Assignment You don't need any FPGA constraint, but it's pure VHDL code. In the FPGA you can always read the data so DATA_IN <= CPU_DATA_BUS; But you need to set the bus in treestate when you don't need to write (in this example CS is active high, so when it's active you can put your data out else you need to keep the bus in treestate). CPU_DATA_BUS <= DATA_TO_OUT when (CS='1') else (others => 'Z'); Hope it helps

check the pin planner , does it correctly instatiate bidir pin for the particular pin, otherwise, just add it

    2 Answers. There are two ways of specifying PIN assignment — you can either use PinPlanner or to specify the PIN along with to specify the IO standard. I recommend you read I/O Management documentation from Altera. But here are few examples: These are location assignments for 1 GbE RGMII Ethernet Interface:
