FAQ
What is the maximum transceiver data rate supported by the XCKU3P-2FFVD900I?
The XCKU3P-2FFVD900I supports GTYP transceivers operating at up to 14.6 Gb/s per lane, validated for IEEE 802.3bj 100GBASE-KR4 and CPRI Option 10 applications. This rate is achievable across all 48 lanes simultaneously under specified thermal and power conditions, with built-in PRBS generators and error detectors for link validation.
Does the XCKU3P-2FFVD900I include hardware support for IEEE 1588 timestamping?
Yes, the XCKU3P-2FFVD900I integrates dedicated IEEE 1588-2008 v2 hardware timestamping logic with sub-10 ns precision. It supports both one-step and two-step timestamp insertion/removal on 100G Ethernet frames, and is configurable for boundary clock operation in TSN and 5G fronthaul deployments.
What I/O voltage standards are supported by the XCKU3P-2FFVD900I?
The XCKU3P-2FFVD900I supports multiple I/O standards including LVDS, SSTL-18/15, HSTL-I/II, and MIPI D-PHY across its 24 programmable I/O banks. Each bank operates independently at 1.8 V, 1.5 V, or 1.35 V, enabling mixed-voltage interfacing to RF converters, memory, and legacy controllers without level shifters.
Is the XCKU3P-2FFVD900I pin-compatible with other Kintex UltraScale+ devices in the FFVD900 package?
No, the XCKU3P-2FFVD900I is not pin-compatible with other Kintex UltraScale+ devices in the FFVD900 package. While the package footprint is identical, ball function mapping differs across variants (e.g., XCKU5P-2FFVD900I assigns different signals to pins M17 and R15), requiring board-level redesign for substitution.
What hardened IP blocks are integrated into the XCKU3P-2FFVD900I?
The XCKU3P-2FFVD900I includes hardened 100G Ethernet MAC blocks compliant with IEEE 802.3bj, IEEE 1588 v2 timestamping engines, and AXI4-Stream interconnect fabric. These blocks operate independently of fabric resources, preserving logic cell count for application-specific signal processing kernels.
