AMD XCV1000E-7BG560I

Overview

XCV1000E-7BG560I from Xilinx is a 1.8 V SRAM-based Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) with 331,776 logic cells, 64 × 96 CLB array, and 404 user I/O pins in a 560-ball BGA package. It delivers 130 MHz internal performance (four LUT levels), supports LVDS/BLVDS/LVPECL differential I/O up to 622 Mb/s, and integrates eight digital Delay-Locked Loops (DLLs) for clock management - used in high-speed communication interface design and reconfigurable signal processing systems.

For engineers reviewing the XCV1000E-7BG560I datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its -7 speed grade timing (4.3 ns register-to-register delay), 393,216-bit block RAM capacity, 1.8 V core voltage with 3.3 V I/O tolerance, PCI-compliant 32/64-bit 33/66 MHz interface support, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +100°C).

Technical Context

The XCV1000E-7BG560I implements a flexible, regular FPGA architecture built around configurable logic blocks (CLBs) and programmable input/output blocks (IOBs), interconnected via a hierarchical routing matrix. Its CLBs contain four logic cells each - each with 4-input LUTs, dedicated carry logic, and dual flip-flops - enabling high-speed arithmetic and wide-input logic functions.

Each IOB supports SelectI/O+™ technology with independent programmable drive strength, slew rate, and polarity control; supports 20 I/O standards including LVTTL, LVCMOS2, SSTL, HSTL, GTL+, and differential LVDS/BLVDS/LVPECL; and features IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan compliance. Eight fully digital DLLs provide zero-delay clock conversion, 50% duty-cycle synthesis for DDR, and frequency multiplication/division.

FAQ

What is the maximum differential I/O data rate supported by the XCV1000E-7BG560I?

The XCV1000E-7BG560I supports LVDS signaling at up to 622 Mb/s, BLVDS at equivalent rates, and LVPECL clock inputs for 300+ MHz operation. These capabilities are confirmed in DS022-1 (v2.3) Section "Differential Signalling Support" and validated by device-level timing parameters for differential I/O standards in Module 3 of the Virtex-E Data Sheet. The XCV1000E-7BG560I achieves this using dedicated differential routing resources and DLL-synchronized capture.

Does the XCV1000E-7BG560I support PCI 66 MHz operation?

Yes, the XCV1000E-7BG560I is fully compliant with the PCI Local Bus Specification Rev 2.2 for both 33 MHz and 66 MHz operation in 32-bit and 64-bit configurations. This is explicitly stated in the "Features" section of DS022-1 (v2.3) and verified by DC and switching characteristics in Module 3. The XCV1000E-7BG560I uses its 3.3 V-tolerant I/O banks and dedicated PCI-compatible timing models to meet setup/hold and skew requirements.

How many block RAMs does the XCV1000E-7BG560I contain, and what is their configuration flexibility?

The XCV1000E-7BG560I contains 96 block SelectRAMs totaling 393,216 bits, organized as 4096-bit synchronous dual-port RAMs. Each block supports independent data width configuration per port (1–36 bits), true dual-port read/write concurrency, and built-in bus-width conversion - as documented in Table 4 and Figure 6 of DS022-2 (v2.8). This architecture enables efficient FIFO, buffer, and lookup table implementations within the XCV1000E-7BG560I.

Is the XCV1000E-7BG560I pin-compatible with other Virtex-E devices in the BG560 package?

Yes, the XCV1000E-7BG560I shares identical ball mapping with other Virtex-E devices offered in the BG560 package (e.g., XCV600E-7BG560I, XCV400E-7BG560I), as confirmed in Table 3 ("Virtex-E Device/Package Combinations") of DS022-1 (v2.3). Pin compatibility enables PCB reuse across density tiers, though I/O bank voltage assignments and unused ball states must be verified per device-specific pinout tables in Module 4.

What configuration modes are supported by the XCV1000E-7BG560I?

The XCV1000E-7BG560I supports four configuration modes: master serial (via on-chip oscillator and serial PROM), slave serial, SelectMAP (8- or 16-bit parallel), and JTAG (IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan). These are defined by M0–M2 pin states at power-up and detailed in Figure 1 ("Ordering Information") and Section "Configuration" of DS022-1 (v2.3). All modes allow full SRAM reprogramming, making the XCV1000E-7BG560I suitable for iterative development and field updates.
