Overview
XC2VP40-6FF1152C from Xilinx is a Virtex-II Pro platform FPGA with dual PowerPC 405 RISC processor blocks, 43,632 logic cells, 192 18×18 multipliers, and 804 user I/Os in an 1152-pin flip-chip BGA package. It delivers up to 350 MHz processor operation and supports 3.125 Gb/s RocketIO transceivers (8 or 12 channels depending on configuration), targeting high-performance telecom, networking, and video processing systems.
For engineers reviewing the XC2VP40-6FF1152C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include dual-processor integration, embedded SERDES bandwidth, DCM-based clock management, SelectIO-Ultra I/O flexibility, and compatibility with legacy Xilinx design flows and IP cores.
Technical Context
The XC2VP40-6FF1152C implements a hardened dual PowerPC 405 core architecture with 16 KB instruction and 16 KB data caches, MMU support, and dedicated OCM interfaces - enabling real-time embedded processing alongside programmable logic. Its FPGA fabric includes 192 Block SelectRAM+ modules (each 18 Kb), 192 dedicated 18×18 multipliers, and twelve Digital Clock Managers for precise phase-shifting and frequency synthesis.
This device uses Active Interconnect routing with hierarchical segmented resources, supporting predictable timing independent of fanout. The FF1152 package provides 804 user I/Os with SelectIO-Ultra support for LVDS (840 Mb/s), SSTL/HSTL, PCI-X, and digitally controlled impedance (DCI) termination - all operating from 1.5 V core, 2.5 V auxiliary, and configurable 1.5–3.3 V I/O supplies.

Pinout & Package
XC2VP40-6FF1152C is housed in a 35 mm × 35 mm, 1.0 mm pitch, flip-chip fine-pitch BGA (FF1152) package with 1152 balls. Of these, 804 are user-configurable I/Os; remaining balls allocate to power (VCCINT, VCCAUX, VCCO), ground, configuration (M0–M2, CCLK, DONE, PROG_B), JTAG (TCK/TMS/TDI/TDO), and reserved/HSWAP_EN/RSVD pins. RocketIO transceiver pins are not bonded out in this package variant.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the PowerPC cores in XC2VP40-6FF1152C?
The XC2VP40-6FF1152C supports up to 350 MHz PowerPC 405 core operation in -6 speed grade commercial devices. This rating assumes proper thermal management and adherence to XAPP755 guidelines for dual-core timing closure. The actual achievable frequency depends on cache hit rate, bus contention, and clock domain crossings within the user design.
Does XC2VP40-6FF1152C include RocketIO transceivers in the FF1152 package?
No. According to Table 3 in DS083 v5.0, the XC2VP40-6FF1152C variant in the FF1152 package has zero bonded-out RocketIO transceivers. All 804 I/O pins are allocated to SelectIO-Ultra banks, enabling maximum parallel interface capability - unlike FG or FF672 variants which route transceiver signals to package balls.
What I/O standards are supported by XC2VP40-6FF1152C?
XC2VP40-6FF1152C supports 22 single-ended (LVCMOS 1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V, PCI/PCI-X, GTL, HSTL, SSTL) and 10 differential (LVDS, BLVDS, ULVDS, LDT, LVPECL) standards. Digitally Controlled Impedance (DCI) provides on-die termination for all single-ended standards, eliminating external resistors for stub-matched routing.
Can XC2VP40-6FF1152C be configured via JTAG only, or are other methods supported?
XC2VP40-6FF1152C supports five configuration modes: Slave Serial, Master Serial, Slave SelectMAP, Master SelectMAP, and IEEE 1532 JTAG. JTAG is fully functional for programming, readback, and debugging - but production systems typically use Master SelectMAP with external PROM for autonomous boot. Boundary-scan is IEEE 1149.1 compliant.
Is XC2VP40-6FF1152C still recommended for new designs?
No. Xilinx explicitly marks XC2VP40-6FF1152C as "Product Not Recommended For New Designs" in DS083 v5.0 (June 2011). It remains available for legacy support and repair, but new projects should evaluate Spartan-7, Artix-7, or Kintex UltraScale+ families for improved power efficiency, security, and toolchain support.
