Cyclone III memory interfaces, including DDR input registers, DDR
output registers, on-chip termination, and PLLs, are discussed below.
DDR Input Registers
The DDR input registers are implemented with three internal logic
element (LE) registers for every DQ pin. These LE registers are located in
the logic array block (LAB) adjacent to the DDR input pin.

The DDR data is first fed to two registers, input register A
register B

The sync_reg_h and sync_reg_l registers accept the data from the
DDR input registers, then transfer the data to a FIFO to synchronize the
two data streams to the rising edge of the system clock. Since the
read-capture clock is generated by the PLL, the read-data strobe signal
(DQS or CQ) is not used during read in Cyclone III devices. Hence,
postamble is not a concern in this case.
