Yes, Power Manager II device supports Hot Socketing. All the pins of the Power Manager II are Hot Socket complaint. There is no problem in applying maximum specified I/O voltages to the pins before VCCD or VCCA is applied. However small leakage ...
CertusPro-NX's I/O hardware default is weak pull-down, and it cannot be changed until it is powered up and loaded with bitstream. The only way to get those lines to be 'high' by default is by adding external pull-up resistor on the PCB board.
The LatticeECP3 doesn't have a dedicated control signal to put the FPGA IO to tri-state. There are cases that some designers might want to have the LatticeECP3 FPGA IO tri-stated when a new line card is being inserted as some partner devices in these ...
Floating IO pin is not recommended. If IO pins are left floating, then the input transistors might fall outside of the saturation or cut-off region. As a result, the device could draw additional current and increase the device's power consumption. If ...
