All modes are electrically and functionally validated for the XC4VFX100-10FF1152C and require no external level-shifting for standard 3.3 V or 2.5 V interfaces.
Can the XC4VFX100-10FF1152C operate with different I/O voltages on separate banks?
Yes, the XC4VFX100-10FF1152C supports independent VCCO voltages per I/O bank-ranging from 1.2 V to 2.5 V-and allows mixing of LVCMOS, SSTL, and HSTL standards simultaneously. Each bank's voltage is set by its dedicated VCCO pin, enabling direct interfacing with heterogeneous memory, sensors, and communication ICs without level translators in the XC4VFX100-10FF1152C system design.
Is the XC4VFX100-10FF1152C RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the XC4VFX100-10FF1152C is manufactured in a lead-free, RoHS-compliant process. The FF1152 package uses matte tin finish on solder balls and meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3.
