Notes to
Table 1–3:
(1) The E144 package has an exposed pad at the bottom of the package. This exposed pad is a ground pad that must be connected to the ground plane of your PCB. Use this exposed pad for electrical
connectivity and not for thermal purposes.
(2) Use the Pin Migration View window in Pin Planner of the Quartus II software to verify the pin migration compatibility when you perform device migration. For more information, refer to the
I/O
Management
chapter in volume 2 of the
Quartus II Handbook.
(3) This includes both dedicated and emulated LVDS pairs. For more information, refer to the
