    You can power down the I/O buffer dynamically when your application is in idle or sleep mode. One example is the digital single lens reflex DSLR camera MAX 10 Power Management Features and Architecture Altera Corporation Send Feedback...
  • Page 11 Altera provides a soft power management controller as reference design utilizing low-power features implemented in the MAX 10 devices. You can modify the reference design based on your application. The soft power management controller includes a simple finite state machine (FSM) to manage the low-power state mode by powering down the I/O buffer and GCLK gating during sleep mode.

    CCIO not in user mode. Altera uses GND as reference for hot-socketing operation and I/O buffer designs. To ensure proper operation, Altera recommends connecting the GND between boards before connecting the power supplies. This prevents the GND on your board from being pulled up inadvertently by a path to power through other components on your board.
