Product details
Overview
XC2VP7-5FGG456I from Xilinx is a Virtex-II Pro platform FPGA integrating one PowerPC 405 RISC processor core, eight RocketIO multi-gigabit transceivers (2.5 Gb/s max per channel), 11,088 logic cells, and 396 user I/Os in a 456-pin fine-pitch wire-bond BGA package. It delivers embedded processing, high-speed serial connectivity, and programmable logic for telecom backplane interfaces and industrial protocol gateways.
For engineers reviewing the XC2VP7-5FGG456I datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include confirmed -5 speed grade timing (300 MHz PowerPC, 2.5 Gb/s RocketIO), FGG456 package compatibility, DCI-enabled SelectIO-Ultra I/O support, and dual DCM clock management - all validated for legacy rework and long-life industrial deployment.
Technical Context
The XC2VP7-5FGG456I implements a hardened PowerPC 405 core with 16 KB instruction and 16 KB data caches, MMU, and CoreConnect bus interface, operating at up to 300 MHz in Industrial grade. Its eight RocketIO transceivers support full-duplex operation from 600 Mb/s to 2.5 Gb/s with 8B/10B encoding, on-chip 50 Ω termination, and per-channel loopback.
Logic fabric includes 4,928 CLB slices, 154 dedicated 18×18 multipliers, 44 Block SelectRAM+ modules (18 Kb each), and twelve Digital Clock Managers (DCMs) with phase shifting, frequency synthesis, and deskew - all built on a 0.13 µm nine-layer copper process with 1.5 V core supply.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FPGA-based embedded processing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| XC2VP7-6FGG456I | Higher speed grade (-6): 350 MHz PowerPC, 2.5 Gb/s RocketIO (same package) | Requires tighter timing closure but enables higher throughput in compute-bound protocols | Select when system-level timing margin is insufficient at -5 grade, especially for multi-cycle path-heavy designs |
| XC2VP4-5FGG456I | Fewer resources: 6,768 logic cells, 4 RocketIO transceivers, 248 I/Os (same package footprint) | Limited to single-processor, lower-bandwidth serial interconnects | Choose for cost-sensitive rework where full XC2VP7 capability is unused and I/O count permits |
Compared with XC2VP7-5FGG456I, the -6 variant trades guaranteed industrial temperature operation for higher clock rates, while the XC2VP4-5 offers identical packaging and pinout but reduced logic density and transceiver count - making it suitable only for scaled-down derivatives of the same system architecture.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the PowerPC 405 core in XC2VP7-5FGG456I?
The XC2VP7-5FGG456I PowerPC 405 core operates at up to 300 MHz under Industrial temperature conditions (-40°C to +100°C) as specified in DS083 Table 4. This speed grade (-5) is validated for sustained operation within thermal and voltage limits defined in the device's DC characteristics. The XC2VP7-5FGG456I does not support 350 MHz or 400 MHz operation - those require -6 or -7 speed grades, which are not rated for Industrial grade.
Does XC2VP7-5FGG456I support JTAG boundary-scan testing?
Yes, XC2VP7-5FGG456I fully complies with IEEE 1149.1 and supports boundary-scan testing via dedicated TCK, TMS, TDI, and TDO pins. The device implements standard instructions including EXTEST, INTEST, SAMPLE, and BYPASS, enabling board-level interconnect verification and in-system programming. This capability is integral to the XC2VP7-5FGG456I configuration architecture and requires no additional licensing or configuration bits.
Can XC2VP7-5FGG456I be used in new designs despite the "Not Recommended For New Designs" status?
XC2VP7-5FGG456I is marked "Product Not Recommended For New Designs" per Xilinx DS083 v5.0 (June 2011), indicating discontinuation of marketing and roadmap support. However, Aetrix Electronics maintains active inventory and long-term supply agreements for legacy rework, repair, and sustainment programs. Engineers must validate full lifecycle commitment and obsolescence risk mitigation before committing to new production builds using XC2VP7-5FGG456I.
What are the supported configuration modes for XC2VP7-5FGG456I?
XC2VP7-5FGG456I supports five configuration modes: Slave Serial, Master Serial, Slave SelectMAP, Master SelectMAP, and IEEE 1532 Boundary-Scan. Mode selection is controlled by M0–M2 pins at power-up. All modes load the same SRAM-based configuration bitstream, and the XC2VP7-5FGG456I retains full readback and partial reconfiguration capability regardless of entry method.
Is triple-DES bitstream encryption available on XC2VP7-5FGG456I?
Yes, XC2VP7-5FGG456I includes an on-chip DES decryptor supporting optional Triple-DES encryption of the configuration bitstream. This feature is enabled via configuration bit settings and requires external key provisioning. Encryption applies to all configuration modes (SelectMAP, serial, JTAG) and protects intellectual property against unauthorized readback or cloning of the XC2VP7-5FGG456I design.
