AMD XC5VLX110T-1FFG1136I

Overview

XC5VLX110T-1FFG1136I from AMD (formerly Xilinx) is a Virtex-5 FPGA featuring 110,592 logic cells, 6.48 Mb of block RAM, and 240 DSP48E slices. It supports PCIe Gen1 x8, DDR2-533 memory interfaces, and operates at -1 speed grade with industrial temperature range (-40°C to +100°C). Used in high-performance digital signal processing and reconfigurable computing systems.

For engineers reviewing the XC5VLX110T-1FFG1136I datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection factors include I/O count (640 user I/Os), transceiver capability (no integrated multi-gigabit transceivers), configuration interface (Master SelectMAP, Slave Parallel), and thermal design requirements for FFG1136 package.

Technical Context

The XC5VLX110T-1FFG1136I implements a column-based architecture with configurable logic blocks (CLBs), dedicated DSP slices, and hierarchical clock networks. It supports partial reconfiguration and includes built-in JTAG boundary-scan support per IEEE 1149.1.

Configuration is performed via external SPI/BPI flash or master/slave parallel mode using 3.3V or 1.8V I/O banks. The device uses 65 nm copper process technology and requires separate VCCINT (1.0V), VCCAUX (2.5V), and VCCO (1.2–3.3V) supplies.

FAQ

What is the operating temperature range for XC5VLX110T-1FFG1136I?

The XC5VLX110T-1FFG1136I is rated for industrial temperature operation from -40°C to +100°C. This range is validated per device characterization and applies to all I/O and core logic functionality when powered within specified voltage tolerances. Thermal management must ensure junction temperature remains within this limit during sustained operation.

Does XC5VLX110T-1FFG1136I include integrated multi-gigabit transceivers?

No, the XC5VLX110T-1FFG1136I does not include GTX or GTP transceivers. It belongs to the LX (Logic) subfamily of Virtex-5 and supports only parallel I/O standards such as DDR2-533 and PCIe Gen1 x8 via dedicated hard IP blocks - not serial transceivers. For transceiver capability, consider the TX or SX variants.

What configuration modes are supported by XC5VLX110T-1FFG1136I?

The XC5VLX110T-1FFG1136I supports Master SelectMAP, Slave Parallel, and JTAG configuration modes. Master SelectMAP uses an external PROM to drive CCLK and DIN; Slave Parallel loads bitstream via 8- or 16-bit bus; JTAG enables in-system programming and debugging via TDI/TDO/TCK/TMS pins.

How many clock management tiles (CMT) does XC5VLX110T-1FFG1136I contain?

The XC5VLX110T-1FFG1136I contains eight clock management tiles (CMTs), each integrating one DCM and one PLL. These provide independent clock synthesis, phase shifting, frequency multiplication/division, and jitter filtering for up to 16 globally distributed clock networks.

Is XC5VLX110T-1FFG1136I pin-compatible with other Virtex-5 FFG1136 devices?

Yes, the XC5VLX110T-1FFG1136I shares the same FFG1136 package footprint and pinout with other Virtex-5 LX/TX/SX devices in the same density class, including XC5VLX110-1FF1136I. Power, ground, configuration, and I/O pin assignments are consistent across compatible variants.
