Product details
Overview
XC2VP4-6FG456C from Xilinx is a Virtex-II Pro platform FPGA integrating one PowerPC 405 RISC processor core, four RocketIO multi-gigabit transceivers (2.5 Gb/s max), 6,768 logic cells, twelve Digital Clock Managers (DCMs), and 348 user I/Os in a 456-pin fine-pitch wire-bond BGA package. It targets high-speed serial interconnect and embedded processing in telecom line cards, network switches, and video processing systems.
For engineers reviewing the XC2VP4-6FG456C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include confirmed PowerPC 405 integration, RocketIO transceiver count and speed grade (-6 = 2.5 Gb/s), DCM count for clock synthesis, SelectRAM+ memory capacity (504 Kb), and FG456 package compatibility with existing PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The XC2VP4-6FG456C implements a hybrid architecture combining hard IP blocks - including a fully functional IBM PowerPC 405 core running up to 350 MHz (speed grade -6) and four RocketIO transceivers supporting 600 Mb/s to 2.5 Gb/s per channel - with programmable FPGA fabric based on 0.13 µm copper process technology. Its CLB structure delivers 3,008 slices and 94 18×18 multipliers.
Digital Clock Manager (DCM) modules provide precise clock de-skew, integer/fractional frequency synthesis, and ±1/256-cycle phase shifting. The device uses SRAM-based configuration with IEEE 1532 support, triple-DES bitstream encryption, and partial reconfiguration capability - all operating under 1.5 V core (VCCINT), 2.5 V auxiliary (VCCAUX), and programmable I/O (VCCO) supplies.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the PowerPC 405 core in XC2VP4-6FG456C?
The XC2VP4-6FG456C PowerPC 405 core operates at up to 350 MHz under speed grade -6 (Commercial temperature range). This rating assumes proper decoupling, thermal management, and adherence to voltage specifications (1.5 V VCCINT). Performance may be reduced in Industrial-grade variants or under non-ideal PCB conditions.
Does XC2VP4-6FG456C support partial reconfiguration?
Yes, XC2VP4-6FG456C supports partial reconfiguration through its SRAM-based configuration architecture and dedicated configuration logic. This allows dynamic swapping of logic modules without resetting the entire device - essential for adaptive communication protocols and runtime feature updates in deployed systems.
What I/O standards are supported by XC2VP4-6FG456C?
XC2VP4-6FG456C supports 22 single-ended standards (including LVCMOS 1.5V/1.8V/2.5V/3.3V, PCI, GTL) and 10 differential standards (LVDS, BLVDS, LVPECL, HSTL, SSTL). Its SelectIO-Ultra blocks also provide Digitally Controlled Impedance (DCI) for automatic on-die termination matching.
Is XC2VP4-6FG456C RoHS-compliant?
Yes, XC2VP4-6FG456C is manufactured in Pb-free (RoHS-compliant) versions under the FGG456 package designation. The FG456 variant is leaded; customers requiring RoHS compliance must specify FGG456 in ordering - both share identical electrical and thermal characteristics.
What configuration modes does XC2VP4-6FG456C support?
XC2VP4-6FG456C supports five configuration modes: Slave Serial, Master Serial, Slave SelectMAP, Master SelectMAP, and IEEE 1532 Boundary-Scan. Configuration can be initiated via JTAG, dedicated configuration pins, or external microcontroller - enabling flexible boot strategies in embedded systems.
