Can the Cyclone™, Stratix and Stratix GX families of devices support the 3.3V PCI I/O standard in non PCI dedicated pins?

Environment

BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
Description

Yes, non PCI dedicated I/O pins in Cyclone, Stratix and Stratix GX devices support the 3.3V PCI I/O standard. Select the LVTTL standard and the appropriate current drive strength to insure compliance with the 3.3V-PCI Local Bus Specification in your system (usually between 16 mA and 20 mA) and use an external diode.
