No, XCAU15P-2SBVB484I supports PCIe Gen4 x16 only, with a maximum data rate of 16 GT/s per lane. It does not implement PCIe Gen5 physical layer circuitry or protocol stack extensions. Systems requiring Gen5 must use higher-tier Versal devices such as the Premium series. XCAU15P-2SBVB484I's Gen4 interface remains fully compatible with existing server motherboards and switch fabrics.
What package type and ball pitch does XCAU15P-2SBVB484I use?
XCAU15P-2SBVB484I uses a 484-ball Fine-Pitch Ball Grid Array (FC-BGA) package measuring 23 mm × 23 mm with 0.8 mm ball pitch. The package includes a thermal lid and integrated heat spreader for reliable conduction cooling in PCIe add-in cards. XCAU15P-2SBVB484I's ball map is identical to other Versal AI Core family members in the SBVB484I footprint.
Can XCAU15P-2SBVB484I run Linux on its Arm Cortex-A72 cores?
Yes, XCAU15P-2SBVB484I supports full Linux execution on its dual-core Arm Cortex-A72 application processor, with boot from QSPI flash or SD card, MMU-enabled memory management, and peripheral drivers for UART, I2C, SPI, and PCIe. XCAU15P-2SBVB484I includes PS-PL interface bridges enabling Linux applications to offload tasks to AI Engines and programmable logic via standardized APIs.
Is XCAU15P-2SBVB484I pin-compatible with XCAU15P-2SBVA484I?
Yes, XCAU15P-2SBVB484I is mechanically and electrically pin-compatible with XCAU15P-2SBVA484I - sharing identical FC-BGA 484-ball mapping, voltage rail assignments, and I/O bank configurations. XCAU15P-2SBVB484I differs only in speed grade and thermal specifications, allowing drop-in replacement in existing PCB layouts when higher performance is needed.
