Product details
Overview
XC2V80-5FGG256C from Xilinx is a 80K-system-gate Virtex-II platform FPGA in a 256-pin Fine-Pitch BGA (FGG256) package, operating at commercial temperature range (0°C to +85°C) with -5 speed grade. It integrates 512 Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs), 16 dedicated 18×18 multipliers, 8 Block SelectRAM™ modules (144 Kbits total), 4 Digital Clock Managers (DCMs), and supports up to 120 user I/Os. It is used in high-speed communication interface logic, such as PCI-X 133 MHz bridge controllers and LVDS-based video data receivers.
For engineers reviewing the XC2V80-5FGG256C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include I/O count (120), DCM count (4), CLB density (512), supported differential standards (LVDS, BLVDS, LVPECL), and DCI-enabled single-ended termination for HSTL/SSTL interfaces.
Technical Context
The XC2V80-5FGG256C implements a hierarchical SRAM-based architecture with four major configurable resources: IOBs supporting DDR registers and Digitally Controlled Impedance (DCI); CLBs containing dual 4-input LUTs, flip-flops/latches, and carry chains; 18-Kb dual-port Block SelectRAM modules; and self-calibrating DCMs offering precise de-skew, frequency synthesis (M/D ratio), and fine-grained phase shifting (1/256 period resolution). All routing uses Active Interconnect Technology with predictable delay independent of fanout.
It features 16 global clock MUX buffers, 24 long lines per row/column, and supports boundary-scan (IEEE 1149.1/1532) configuration via Slave/Master SelectMAP or JTAG. Core voltage is 1.5 V (VCCINT), auxiliary supply is 3.3 V (VCCAUX), and I/O voltage (VCCO) is programmable per bank (1.5 V–3.3 V) to match interface standards including LVTTL, LVCMOS, SSTL, HSTL, PCI-X, and LVDS.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FPGA logic and interface applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| XC2V100-5FG256C | Higher density (100K gates), 640 CLBs, 10 DCMs, 172 I/Os - same FGG256/FG256 footprint but not pin-compatible due to increased I/O count | Supports larger designs requiring more logic or clock domains; unsuitable for space-constrained layouts needing exact 120-I/O fit | Select only if design scalability beyond XC2V80 is required and PCB layout accommodates additional I/O routing |
| XC3S200-4PQ208C | Spartan-3 family; 200K gates, 480 CLBs, 4 DCMs, 141 I/Os in 208-pin PQFP - different architecture, no DCI, lower performance (333 MHz max) | Better cost-per-gate for non-critical timing applications; lacks PCI-X/LVDS-840Mb/s support and on-chip termination | Choose for cost-sensitive, lower-bandwidth control-plane logic where DCI and high-speed I/O are unnecessary |
Compared with XC2V80-5FGG256C, XC2V100-5FG256C offers higher gate count and DCM count but requires board-level I/O re-routing, while XC3S200-4PQ208C trades performance and advanced I/O features for lower unit cost and simpler thermal management in non-timing-critical roles.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the XC2V80-5FGG256C?
The XC2V80-5FGG256C has a -5 speed grade, guaranteeing a maximum internal clock frequency of 420 MHz and I/O toggle rates up to 840 Mb/s. This is validated under commercial temperature conditions (0°C to +85°C) and specified in Module 3 of DS031. Actual achievable frequency depends on design placement, routing, and timing constraints applied during implementation.
Does the XC2V80-5FGG256C support DDR SDRAM interfaces?
Yes, the XC2V80-5FGG256C supports DDR SDRAM interfaces through its SelectIO™-Ultra I/O architecture, which includes dedicated DDR input and output registers per IOB, programmable I/O standards (SSTL2_I/II), and DCMs for precise clock phase alignment. It meets JEDEC-compliant timing for 200 MHz DDR operation when properly configured with DCI termination.
Is the XC2V80-5FGG256C pin-compatible with other Virtex-II devices in the FGG256 package?
No - while all Virtex-II devices in the FGG256 package share the same physical footprint and ball pitch, pin assignments differ across densities. For example, XC2V80-5FGG256C provides 120 user I/Os, whereas XC2V100-5FGG256C offers 172. Pin compatibility is only guaranteed within identical device/package combinations, not across densities.
What configuration modes does the XC2V80-5FGG256C support?
The XC2V80-5FGG256C supports five configuration modes: Slave Serial, Master Serial, Slave SelectMAP, Master SelectMAP, and Boundary-Scan (IEEE 1532). Configuration is initiated via PROG_B, controlled by M0–M2 mode pins, and clocked by CCLK. Bitstream encryption using Triple-DES is optional and enabled via configuration settings.
Can the XC2V80-5FGG256C operate with 5V-tolerant I/Os?
No - the XC2V80-5FGG256C IOBs are not 5V-tolerant. As outputs, they are incompatible with 5V standards. As inputs, they can interface with 5V signals only when external current-limiting resistors are used to prevent damage; this is documented in Xilinx Tech Topic "5V Tolerant I/Os" and requires careful voltage translation design.
