Note that some of Spartan-6 I/O types are partially compatible, so pins of compatible types can be used as inputs for signal of other type. See "Spartan-6 FPGA SelectIO Resources" page 38 for detailed information.

Power-on Reset

During power-on, the /RESET line is first asserted. Thereafter, the supply voltage supervisor monitors the power supply rail 3.3V and keeps the /RESET line active (low) as long as the supply rail remains below the threshold voltage(2.93 volt). An internal timer delays the return of the /RESET line to the inactive state (high) to ensure proper system reset prior to a regular system start-up. The typical delay time td of 200 ms starts after the supply rail has risen above the threshold voltage.

After this delay, the /RESET line is reset (high) and the FPGA configuration can start. When the supply rail voltage drops below the threshold voltage, the /RESET line becomes active (low) again and stays active (low) as long as the rail voltage remains below the threshold voltage (2.93 volt). Once the rail voltage raises again and remains over the threshold voltage for more than the typical delay time td of 200 ms, the /RESET line returns to the inactive state (high) to allow a new system start-up.
