Intel: Stratix IV has a maximum voltage input to VCCIO of 3.0V, but doesn't it support 3.3V I/O standards?
As you are aware, Stratix IV does not support VCCIO = 3.3V.
However, by setting VCCIO = 3.0V, connection with 3.3V-LVTTL and 3.3V-LVCMOS is possible.
This is described in the Device Handbook at the URL link below.
It says "The 3.3-V LVTTL/LVCMOS standard is supported using VCCIO at 3.0 V."
Other information is also posted, so please refer to it.

For Quartus II settings, use the Assignment Editor or Pin Planner to select 3.3V-LVTTL or 3.3V-LVCMOS for the corresponding pins.
After compiling, if you look at the VCCIO of the bank where the pins registered with 3.3V-LVTTL or 3.3V-LVCMOS are arranged, you can confirm that it is set at 3.0V.
