FAQ
What is the maximum supported transceiver data rate for XC7K480T-2FFG901C?
The XC7K480T-2FFG901C integrates 24 GTY transceivers rated for operation up to 13.1 Gb/s per lane. This enables native support for PCIe Gen3, 10GBASE-R, and CPRI Option 7 without external retiming. The actual achievable rate depends on PCB stackup, reference clock quality, and equalization settings configured in Vivado.
Does XC7K480T-2FFG901C support partial reconfiguration?
Yes, XC7K480T-2FFG901C supports partial reconfiguration through dedicated ICAP and FRAME_ECC interfaces. This allows runtime swapping of logic modules without resetting the entire device, which is essential for applications like adaptive radio front-ends and fault-tolerant control systems where continuous operation is required.
What configuration modes are supported by XC7K480T-2FFG901C?
XC7K480T-2FFG901C supports Master SPI, Slave Serial, JTAG, and BPI configuration modes. Mode selection is controlled by M0–M2 pins at power-up. Dual-boot capability with fallback to secondary configuration memory is also implemented, enhancing field reliability in unattended deployments.
What is the operating junction temperature range for XC7K480T-2FFG901C?
The XC7K480T-2FFG901C is specified for industrial temperature operation from 0°C to 100°C junction temperature. This rating applies under defined airflow, thermal pad mounting, and power dissipation conditions per UG475. Derating is required above 85°C ambient depending on package thermal resistance and board layout.
How many GTY transceivers does XC7K480T-2FFG901C include?
XC7K480T-2FFG901C includes exactly 24 GTY transceivers. Each transceiver supports protocols including PCIe Gen3, 10G Ethernet, SATA III, and CPRI, with programmable TX/RX equalization, clock correction, and built-in PRBS pattern generation for link validation.
