AMD XCV300-5BG432C

Overview

XCV300-5BG432C from Xilinx is a 2.5 V SRAM-based Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) with 322,970 system gates, 6,912 logic cells, and 316 user I/O pins in a 432-ball BGA package. It features four delay-locked loops (DLLs), hierarchical memory (including 65,536 bits of block SelectRAM and LUT-configurable RAM/shift registers), and supports 66-MHz PCI compliance and hot-swappable Compact PCI operation.

For engineers reviewing the XCV300-5BG432C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this device serves as a high-density, high-speed programmable logic solution for legacy industrial control, telecom infrastructure, and test equipment where reconfigurable logic with deterministic clock management and multi-standard I/O is required.

Technical Context

The XCV300-5BG432C implements a regular array architecture of Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs) surrounded by Input/Output Blocks (IOBs), interconnected via a hierarchical routing matrix including general-purpose channels, local VersaBlock paths, and dedicated carry chains. Each CLB contains four logic cells with 4-input LUTs, dual flip-flops per slice, and dedicated arithmetic carry logic.

Its IO subsystem supports 16 SelectIO™ standards-including LVTTL, LVCMOS2, PCI 3.3 V, HSTL Class IV, and SSTL2-with banked VCCO and VREF domains, IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan, and configurable weak-keeper/pull-up/pull-down networks. Configuration is SRAM-based, supporting master serial, slave serial, SelectMAP™, and JTAG modes.

FAQ

Is XCV300-5BG432C still in production?

No, XCV300-5BG432C is obsolete per Xilinx documentation (DS003-1 v4.0, March 2013). It is no longer manufactured, but Aetrix Electronics maintains legacy inventory and supports lifecycle management-including cross-reference guidance, obsolescence forecasting, and last-time-buy coordination-for ongoing production of systems dependent on XCV300-5BG432C.

What configuration modes does XCV300-5BG432C support?

XCV300-5BG432C supports four configuration modes: master serial (auto-reads bitstream from external PROM), slave serial, SelectMAP™ (parallel programming via CPU bus), and JTAG (boundary-scan programming and debugging). All modes load the same SRAM-based configuration, enabling field reprogrammability without hardware changes.

Can XCV300-5BG432C interface directly with 3.3 V PCI slots?

Yes, XCV300-5BG432C is 66-MHz PCI compliant and supports 3.3 V PCI signaling natively through its SelectIO™ I/O blocks. Its IOBs meet PCI electrical specifications-including drive strength, slew rate, and input thresholds-when configured for PCI 3.3 V standard with appropriate VCCO = 3.3 V and termination.

Does XCV300-5BG432C include on-chip memory beyond LUTs?

Yes, XCV300-5BG432C integrates 65,536 bits of dedicated block SelectRAM-organized as sixteen 4k-bit dual-ported RAM blocks-as well as LUTs configurable as 16-bit RAM, 32-bit RAM, or 16-bit shift registers. This provides both deep, structured memory and flexible distributed storage for pipeline staging and buffering.

What is the role of the DLLs in XCV300-5BG432C?

The four dedicated delay-locked loops (DLLs) in XCV300-5BG432C eliminate clock skew across the device, align input/output timing to external references, and enable zero-hold-time operation for source-synchronous interfaces. They support phase shifting, duty-cycle correction, and clock multiplication-key for high-speed I/O like HSTL Class IV and DDR-like protocols.
