FAQ
What is the maximum supported data rate per GTY transceiver lane in XCKU035-1FBVA900C?
The XCKU035-1FBVA900C supports up to 32.75 Gb/s per GTY transceiver lane in NRZ mode and 58 Gb/s in PAM4 mode. These rates are validated under specified thermal and power conditions per AMD UG578 v1.14. The XCKU035-1FBVA900C achieves this using integrated CDR, linear equalization, and decision feedback equalization circuitry.
Does XCKU035-1FBVA900C support DDR4 memory interfaces?
Yes, XCKU035-1FBVA900C integrates a hardened DDR4 memory controller supporting up to 2400 MT/s across 64-bit wide interfaces with ECC capability. This controller is implemented in the PS (Processing System) and PL (Programmable Logic) domains, and XCKU035-1FBVA900C requires HP I/O banks configured for SSTL12 I/O standard to interface directly with DDR4 components.
What configuration modes are supported by XCKU035-1FBVA900C?
XCKU035-1FBVA900C supports Quad-SPI, JTAG, and SelectMAP configuration modes. Quad-SPI is commonly used for fast, secure bitstream loading from flash memory, while JTAG enables boundary-scan testing and debug. The XCKU035-1FBVA900C also supports fallback configuration and multi-boot with authentication via AES-256 encryption.
Is XCKU035-1FBVA900C pin-compatible with other Kintex UltraScale devices?
No, XCKU035-1FBVA900C is not pin-compatible with other Kintex UltraScale devices due to unique ball map assignments for GTY transceivers, power rails, and configuration signals. While the FBVA900 package is shared across several Kintex UltraScale+ devices, the XCKU035-1FBVA900C has distinct pin functions and I/O bank allocations that require dedicated PCB layout.
What thermal management features does XCKU035-1FBVA900C include?
XCKU035-1FBVA900C includes an on-die thermal monitoring diode with ±2°C accuracy, programmable thermal shutdown thresholds, and dedicated thermal sensor pins (TSENSE) for external analog readout. These features allow real-time junction temperature tracking and dynamic frequency scaling. The XCKU035-1FBVA900C thermal lid design also enhances heat dissipation in conduction-cooled environments.
