FAQ
What is the maximum supported transceiver data rate for XC5VLX220T-1FF1738I?
The XC5VLX220T-1FF1738I integrates RocketIO GTP transceivers rated for operation up to 3.75 Gb/s per lane. This rate is validated across temperature and voltage corners for protocols including 10GBASE-R, CPRI, and Serial RapidIO. The XC5VLX220T-1FF1738I does not support higher-rate GTY or GTH transceivers found in newer Virtex families.
Does XC5VLX220T-1FF1738I support JTAG boundary-scan testing?
Yes, XC5VLX220T-1FF1738I fully supports IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary-scan for interconnect testing and in-system programming. The TAP controller is accessible via dedicated TCK, TMS, TDI, and TDO pins, and supports IDCODE, SAMPLE/PRELOAD, EXTEST, and INTEST instructions as defined in the Virtex-5 configuration user guide.
What configuration modes are supported by XC5VLX220T-1FF1738I?
XC5VLX220T-1FF1738I supports Master SelectMAP, Slave SelectMAP, JTAG, and Slave Serial configuration modes. Mode selection is controlled by M0–M2 pins at power-up. Master SelectMAP enables autonomous boot from external SPI flash, while JTAG allows debugging and partial reconfiguration during development.
Is XC5VLX220T-1FF1738I qualified for extended temperature operation?
Yes, the "I" suffix in XC5VLX220T-1FF1738I denotes Industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +100°C case temperature). This rating is verified per Xilinx specification DS100 and applies to all logic, I/O, and transceiver functions under specified voltage and loading conditions.
Can XC5VLX220T-1FF1738I implement PCIe Gen2 endpoints?
No, XC5VLX220T-1FF1738I lacks native PCIe Gen2 endpoint hard IP. While its GTP transceivers can be used in custom PCIe PHY implementations, it does not include the integrated PCIe block, transaction layer, or configuration space required for compliant endpoint operation. Designs requiring PCIe must use external PHYs and soft-core controllers, increasing resource usage and validation effort for XC5VLX220T-1FF1738I.
