I/O

Yes

When this interface/signal is enabled and is not being used in a system design, the

 

 

 

 

 

interface/signal should be pulled high with a 10-KΩresistor.

HSS_TXDATA0

 

OD

Yes

When this interface/signal is enabled and is either used or not used in a system design,

 

 

 

 

 

the interface/signal should be pulled high with a 10-KΩresistor to VCCP.

Notes:

 

 

 

 

 

1.

Features disabled/enabled by Soft Fuse must be done during the boot-up sequence. A feature cannot be enabled after

 

being disabled without asserting a system reset.

2.

Features disabled by a specific part number, do not require pull-ups or pull-downs. Therefore, all pins can be left

 

unconnected.

 

 

3.

Features Enabled by a specific part number — and required to be Soft Fuse-disabled, as stated in Note 1 — only require

 

pull-ups or pull-downs in the clock-input signals.
