AMD XCV2000E-7FG1156I

Overview

XCV2000E-7FG1156I from Xilinx is a 1.8 V SRAM-based FPGA with 2.54 million system gates, 43,200 logic cells, and 804 user I/Os in an 1156-ball fine-pitch BGA package. It features eight digital Delay-Locked Loops (DLLs), up to 655,360 bits of true dual-port block RAM, and supports LVDS (622 Mb/s), LVPECL, and PCI 3.3 V/66 MHz interfaces - deployed in high-speed communications infrastructure and radar signal processing.

For engineers reviewing the XCV2000E-7FG1156I datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified architecture details, I/O banking constraints, DLL timing behavior, block RAM configuration modes, and industrial-temperature (-40°C to +100°C) operation for deterministic system-level integration.

Technical Context

The XCV2000E-7FG1156I implements a regular array of 80 × 120 CLBs, each containing four 4-input LUTs with dedicated carry chains and dual flip-flops per slice. Its eight fully digital DLLs provide zero-delay clock conversion, 50% duty-cycle synthesis for DDR, and 4× frequency multiplication - all operating at 1.8 V VCCINT with 3.3 V tolerant I/O banks.

I/O functionality is partitioned across eight voltage-isolated banks, each supporting mixed standards (e.g., LVTTL/LVCMOS2/SSTL3) only when sharing the same VCCO; VREF-dependent inputs (SSTL, HSTL) require bank-wide common threshold voltage. Block RAM columns are placed every 12 CLB columns, with 160 independent 4096-bit dual-port blocks distributed across the die.

FAQ

What is the maximum differential I/O pair count supported by XCV2000E-7FG1156I?

XCV2000E-7FG1156I supports up to 344 differential I/O pairs, as confirmed in Table 1 of DS022-1 (v2.3). This capacity is enabled by its FG1156 package's 804 total user I/O pins, with each differential pair consuming two pins. The device maintains full LVDS and LVPECL compliance at 622 Mb/s across all 344 pairs when configured per bank voltage and termination rules.

Does XCV2000E-7FG1156I support true dual-port block RAM operation?

Yes, XCV2000E-7FG1156I supports true dual-port operation on all 160 block RAMs, each providing independent read and write addresses, data buses, and control signals per port. As specified in DS022-2 (v2.8), this allows concurrent access - for example, streaming video frame buffering where one port writes incoming pixels while the other reads out processed data - with no arbitration logic required.

Can XCV2000E-7FG1156I operate with 5 V tolerant I/Os?

XCV2000E-7FG1156I I/O pins are not inherently 5 V tolerant, but can interface with 5 V systems using external 100 Ω series resistors per pin, as documented in DS022-1 (v2.3). This resistor limits current during overvoltage transients and enables safe operation with 5 V logic levels - however, PCI 5 V signaling is explicitly unsupported, and 3.3 V PCI compliance remains the validated standard.

How many DLLs does XCV2000E-7FG1156I include, and what are their key capabilities?

XCV2000E-7FG1156I integrates eight fully digital Delay-Locked Loops (DLLs), each capable of clock multiply (up to 4×), divide, duty-cycle correction to 50%, and zero-delay forwarding. These DLLs support LVPECL/LVDS clock inputs above 300 MHz and convert them to any I/O standard without external PLLs - critical for source-synchronous interfaces like DDR SDRAM and high-speed SerDes links.

Is XCV2000E-7FG1156I pin-compatible with earlier Virtex family FPGAs?

XCV2000E-7FG1156I is not bitstream-compatible with Virtex family devices, but shares pin compatibility with equivalent Virtex devices in the same FG1156 package - with minor exceptions documented in the DS022-4 pinout tables. Banking rules differ: Virtex-E uses VCCO-powered input buffers for LVTTL/LVCMOS2/PCI, whereas Virtex uses VCCINT, requiring careful I/O voltage planning during migration.
