Pullup voltage for port 1 signals diferent from Vdd1

Q

I plan to power port 1 at 3.3V. But I need to interface to a Xilinx Virtex-6
FPGA. I wonder if setting a 2.5V voltage for the SCL, SDA signals in port 1
would work or if it would produce overcurrents somewhere.

A

This configuration will not damage any parts on the bus. As long as the VIL is
compatible with your output, you can do it. The pull-ups would simply be
referenced to the 2.5V supply.
