AMD XC2V4000-5FF1152I

Overview

XC2V4000-5FF1152I from Xilinx is a high-density, industrial-grade Virtex-II platform FPGA with 4 million system gates, 23,040 CLBs, 120 Block SelectRAM™ modules (912 Kbits total), 720 dedicated 18×18 multipliers, and 12 Digital Clock Managers (DCMs). It delivers up to 420 MHz internal logic speed and supports 840 Mb/s LVDS I/O for telecom, video processing, and high-speed DSP applications.

For engineers reviewing the XC2V4000-5FF1152I datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified architecture details, I/O standard support (LVDS, SSTL, HSTL, PCI-X), DCI termination capability, flip-chip BGA package mapping, and validated alternative FPGAs for migration or sourcing continuity.

Technical Context

The XC2V4000-5FF1152I implements a SRAM-based, reprogrammable logic array built on a 0.15 µm/0.12 µm 8-layer metal CMOS process with 1.5 V core (VCCINT), 3.3 V auxiliary (VCCAUX), and programmable I/O supply (VCCO). Its architecture integrates Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs), dual-port 18-Kb Block SelectRAM, dedicated 18×18 multipliers, and DCMs with precise phase shifting (1/256 clock period resolution) and frequency synthesis (M/D ratio).

It features SelectIO™-Ultra I/O with 19 single-ended and 6 differential standards-including LVDS, BLVDS, LVPECL, and SSTL-plus Digitally Controlled Impedance (DCI) for on-die series or split termination. The FF1152 flip-chip fine-pitch BGA package provides 824 user I/Os, excluding 15 dedicated configuration and boundary-scan pins.

Key Specifications

Pinout & Package

XC2V4000-5FF1152I uses the FF1152 flip-chip fine-pitch BGA package (1.00 mm pitch, 35×35 mm body), optimized for high I/O count (824 user I/Os), thermal performance, and signal integrity in high-speed designs. Pin definitions follow Xilinx DS031 Module 4 - Pinout Information, with dedicated banks supporting independent VCCO voltages and I/O standards.

FAQ

What is the maximum operating junction temperature for XC2V4000-5FF1152I?

The XC2V4000-5FF1152I is rated for industrial temperature range (–40°C to +100°C), with maximum junction temperature of +100°C under specified thermal conditions. This rating is confirmed in DS031 Module 3 (DC and Switching Characteristics) and applies to continuous operation with appropriate board-level thermal management.

Does XC2V4000-5FF1152I support partial reconfiguration?

Yes, XC2V4000-5FF1152I supports partial reconfiguration as documented in DS031 Module 2 (Functional Description). This capability allows dynamic replacement of logic modules during operation, enabling field-upgradable functions and runtime hardware adaptation without full device reset.

What I/O standards with Digitally Controlled Impedance (DCI) are supported by XC2V4000-5FF1152I?

XC2V4000-5FF1152I supports DCI for LVCMOS (1.5V–3.3V), SSTL (1.8V/2.5V/3.3V), HSTL (I/II/III/IV), GTL/GTLP, and LVDS_25_DCI/LVDSEXT_25_DCI. These are listed in DS031 Module 2 Table 3 and enable on-die series or split termination without external resistors.

Is XC2V4000-5FF1152I compatible with Xilinx ISE Design Suite?

Yes, XC2V4000-5FF1152I is fully supported by Xilinx ISE 14.7 and earlier versions, including synthesis, place-and-route, timing analysis, and bitstream generation. It is not supported by Vivado, which targets 7-series and newer architectures.

What is the configuration mode compatibility of XC2V4000-5FF1152I?

XC2V4000-5FF1152I supports five configuration modes: slave-serial, master-serial, slave SelectMAP, master SelectMAP, and boundary-scan (IEEE 1532). Mode selection is controlled by M0–M2 pins at PROG_B assertion, as defined in DS031 Module 1.
