Cyclone III PLLs have a number of advanced features available including clock
multiplication and division, phase shifting, programmable duty cycles, clock
switchover, PLL cascading, PLL dynamic reconfiguration, dynamic phase shifting,
spread-spectrum clocking, external clock outputs and control signals.
For more information about the PLL features, refer to the
Cyclone III Devices
Previously, PLLs in the Cyclone series devices’ FPGAs were designed to be configured
for a specific input frequency. The newly added voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO)
range detector in the Cyclone III PLLs, together with the dynamic phase
reconfiguration and PLL reconfiguration, enable the support for advanced display
applications where the PLL input frequency may not be known ahead of time or may
change.

PLL Applications
In general, you can use the PLLs for frequency synthesis and clock management. The
PLL usage helps to compensate the clock delay for large clock networks to improve
performance. You can also use the PLLs to recover clocks and clean jitter caused by
the transmission signal line. The programmability of the FPGA makes it easy to
change the parameters such as the frequency, bandwidth and duty cycle.
Before you start your design using a PLL, make sure you define the correct
applications for the PLL.
Define PLL Settings
Based on the features that are available in the Cyclone III device that you are
targeting, define the settings of the PLL based on the system requirement. The
following guidelines help you to decide on the settings.
PLL Input and Output Frequencies
Based on your system requirement, define the input frequencies and output
frequencies for the PLL. Cyclone III PLLs can operate in a particular bandwidth. If the
input frequencies and output frequencies do not meet that bandwidth, you can
cascade the PLLs. Cyclone III PLL clock inputs can only be fed by dedicated clock
input pins or outputs from another PLL. PLL clock inputs cannot be fed by internally
generated logic or clock source that originates from the general purpose I/O pins.
PLL clock outputs can drive the dedicated clock output pin or global clock networks.
