Primitive: Bidirectional I/O Buffer with Offset Calibration and VREF Tuning
- PRIMITIVE_GROUP: I/O
- PRIMITIVE_SUBGROUP: BIDIR_BUFFER
- Families: UltraScale, UltraScale+
Introduction
The bidirectional input/output buffer primitive (IOBUFE3) is only supported in HP I/O banks. This primitive has functions similar to the IOBUF_DCIEN along with controls for offset calibration and VREF tuning with input buffer disable (IBUFDISABLE) and on-die input termination control (DCITERMDISABLE) for the input buffer. The offset calibration feature is accessed using the OSC_EN and OSC[3:0] ports. The VREF scan feature is accessed using the HPIO_VREF primitive in conjunction with IOBUFE3.
I/O attributes that do not impact the logic function of the component such as IOSTANDARD, DRIVE and IBUF_LOW_PWR should be supplied in XDC or to the top-level port via an appropriate property. For details on applying such properties to the associated port, see the Vivado Design Suite Properties Reference Guide (UG912).
Port Descriptions
Port | Direction | Width | Function |
---|---|---|---|
DCITERMDISABLE | Input | 1 | Control to enable/disable DCI termination. This is generally used to reduce power in long periods of an idle state. |
I | Input | 1 | Input of OBUF. Connect to the logic driving the output port. |
IBUFDISABLE | Input | 1 | Disables input path through the buffer and forces to a logic Low. This feature is generally used to reduce power at times when the I/O is idle for a period of time. |
IO | Inout | 1 | Bidirectional port to be connected directly to top-level inout port. |
O | Output | 1 | Output path of the buffer. |
OSC<3:0> | Input | 4 | Offset cancellation value |
OSC_EN | Input | 1 | Offset cancellation enable |
T | Input | 1 | 3-state enable input signifying whether the buffer acts as an input or output. |
VREF | Input | 1 | Vref input from HPIO_VREF |
