For engineers reviewing the XC5VLX50T-1FFG1136C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include transceiver compliance (Virtex-5 RocketIO GTP), I/O standard support (LVDS, SSTL, HSTL), and configuration interface (SelectMAP, JTAG, SPI).
Technical Context
The XC5VLX50T-1FFG1136C integrates 12 RocketIO GTP transceivers operating up to 2.5 Gbps, each supporting protocols including PCI Express Base 1.1 and Serial RapidIO 1.2. It uses 65 nm copper process technology and includes dedicated DSP48E slices for arithmetic-intensive tasks.
Configuration is performed via Master SelectMAP mode using external PROM or through JTAG boundary-scan. The device supports multi-boot capability with dual BPI flash and features internal voltage regulation for VCCINT (1.0 V) and VCCAUX (2.5 V).

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by the transceivers in XC5VLX50T-1FFG1136C?
The XC5VLX50T-1FFG1136C integrates 12 RocketIO GTP transceivers, each capable of operation up to 2.5 Gbps. This supports full-rate PCIe Gen1 x4 endpoint configurations and Serial RapidIO 1.2 links. The transceivers are not rated for 3.125 Gbps or higher rates, and do not support PCIe Gen2 or later standards natively.
Does XC5VLX50T-1FFG1136C include hardened PCIe endpoint logic?
Yes, the XC5VLX50T-1FFG1136C includes dedicated hard IP blocks for PCIe Gen1 endpoint functionality, supporting x1, x2, and x4 lane configurations. These blocks handle link training, transaction layer, and data link layer functions without consuming programmable logic resources, enabling deterministic timing and reduced design effort compared to soft-core implementations.
What configuration modes are supported by XC5VLX50T-1FFG1136C?
The XC5VLX50T-1FFG1136C supports Master SelectMAP, Slave SelectMAP, JTAG, and Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) configuration modes. Mode selection is controlled by M0–M2 pins at power-up. Master SelectMAP is commonly used with parallel PROMs, while JTAG is preferred for debugging and in-circuit programming during development.
What is the I/O voltage range supported per bank in XC5VLX50T-1FFG1136C?
XC5VLX50T-1FFG1136C supports per-bank I/O voltage selection ranging from 1.2 V to 3.3 V, with specific standards including LVCMOS, LVTTL, SSTL-2, SSTL-18, HSTL-I, and LVDS. Each I/O bank must be assigned a single VCCO voltage, and differential standards require matching VREF references where applicable.
Is XC5VLX50T-1FFG1136C still in active production by AMD?
XC5VLX50T-1FFG1136C is a mature Virtex-5 device and is no longer in active production by AMD. However, Aetrix Electronics maintains inventory and provides long-term supply support through authorized distribution channels and lifecycle management services tailored for industrial and defense customers.
