FAQ
What is the maximum supported transceiver data rate for XC7A100T-L1FTG256I?
The XC7A100T-L1FTG256I supports transceiver line rates up to 12.5 Gb/s per lane across its 24 GT transceiver quads. This rating is validated under -1L speed grade conditions at 85°C junction temperature with proper reference clock jitter compliance per UG476 specification.
Does XC7A100T-L1FTG256I support PCIe Gen3?
No, XC7A100T-L1FTG256I implements PCIe Gen2 x8 endpoint functionality only. Its transceiver architecture and hard IP do not meet Gen3 electrical or protocol requirements. For PCIe Gen3, AMD recommends Kintex UltraScale devices such as XCKU035.
What I/O standards are supported by XC7A100T-L1FTG256I?
XC7A100T-L1FTG256I supports 21 SelectIO standards including LVDS, SSTL-15, SSTL-18, HSTL-I, HSTL-II, and TMDS. Each I/O bank operates independently at voltages from 1.2V to 3.3V, with on-die termination configurable per pin.
Is XC7A100T-L1FTG256I qualified for automotive applications?
No, XC7A100T-L1FTG256I is rated for industrial temperature range (–40°C to +100°C case temperature) and carries no AEC-Q100 qualification. It is not approved for automotive safety-critical systems; AMD offers Zynq-7000 Automotive variants for such use cases.
How many configuration modes does XC7A100T-L1FTG256I support?
XC7A100T-L1FTG256I supports three primary configuration modes: Master SPI (internal flash boot), Slave Serial (external controller-initiated), and JTAG (debug and programming). Mode selection is controlled by M0–M2 pins during power-up reset.
