FAQ
What is the maximum supported transceiver data rate for XC6VLX240T-1FF784I?
The XC6VLX240T-1FF784I supports transceiver data rates up to 6.6 Gb/s per GTx lane. This rating is validated across all 24 transceiver channels under industrial temperature conditions and applies to protocols including PCIe Gen2, SATA II, and SRIO 2.0. The XC6VLX240T-1FF784I does not support 10GBASE-KR or CAUI-4 without external retiming.
Does XC6VLX240T-1FF784I include hard IP for PCI Express?
Yes, the XC6VLX240T-1FF784I integrates a hard PCIe Endpoint v2.0 block supporting up to x8 lane width and 5.0 GT/s signaling. This block includes integrated TLP parsing, credit management, and MSI-X support. Configuration is performed via dedicated CONFIG_IO pins, and the XC6VLX240T-1FF784I requires no external PCIe switch or bridge IC for endpoint operation.
What I/O standards are supported by XC6VLX240T-1FF784I?
The XC6VLX240T-1FF784I supports LVCMOS, LVTTL, SSTL, HSTL, Differential SSTL, and LVDS across its 560 user I/Os. Each I/O bank is independently configurable for voltage (1.2 V to 3.3 V) and standard. The XC6VLX240T-1FF784I does not support MIPI D-PHY or RSDS natively; those require external level shifters or serializer/deserializers.
Is partial reconfiguration supported on XC6VLX240T-1FF784I?
Yes, the XC6VLX240T-1FF784I supports partial reconfiguration through Xilinx ISE Design Suite 14.7 and later versions. This capability allows dynamic replacement of logic modules while the rest of the design remains operational. The XC6VLX240T-1FF784I requires specific floorplanning and bitstream generation workflows, and partial bitstreams must be validated for timing and resource conflicts before runtime loading.
What is the thermal design power (TDP) of XC6VLX240T-1FF784I at full utilization?
The XC6VLX240T-1FF784I has a typical thermal design power of 12.5 W under worst-case switching activity and industrial temperature conditions. Peak power consumption may reach 15 W during transceiver-heavy workloads. Thermal management must account for the 784-pin FFG package's junction-to-board thermal resistance of 12.3°C/W, and the XC6VLX240T-1FF784I requires a minimum 2-layer copper pour under the die for reliable operation.
