Product details
Overview
XCV300-5PQ240C from Xilinx is a 2.5 V SRAM-based Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) with 322,970 system gates, 6,912 logic cells in a 32×48 CLB array, and 316 user I/O pins in a 240-pin Plastic Quad Flat Pack (PQFP) package. It features four delay-locked loops (DLLs), hierarchical memory (including 65,536-bit block RAM and LUT-based RAM/shift registers), and supports 66-MHz PCI-compliant interfaces for high-speed embedded control and digital signal processing applications.
For engineers reviewing the XCV300-5PQ240C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its -5 speed grade (guaranteed 160 MHz system performance), commercial temperature range (0°C to +85°C), PQ240 package compatibility with legacy PCB layouts, and support for multi-standard SelectIO™ interfaces including LVTTL, LVCMOS2, SSTL2, and HSTL Class IV.
Technical Context
The XCV300-5PQ240C implements a hierarchical routing architecture with a General Routing Matrix (GRM), local VersaBlock interconnect, and peripheral VersaRing I/O routing - enabling efficient place-and-route for complex synchronous designs. Its CLBs contain four logic cells each, with dedicated carry chains, F5/F6 multiplexers for 5–19-input logic, and dual-port 4k-bit block RAMs configurable across 16 depth/width combinations.
Configuration is SRAM-based and in-system programmable via JTAG, SelectMAP™, or slave serial modes; all IOBs support IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan, 5 V-tolerant inputs (LVTTL/PCI), and per-bank VCCO/VREF management for mixed-signaling I/O banking. The device integrates a die-temperature sensor diode and hot-swap capability for Compact PCI systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum guaranteed operating frequency of the XCV300-5PQ240C?
The XCV300-5PQ240C has a -5 speed grade, guaranteeing a maximum system clock frequency of 160 MHz under worst-case commercial conditions (0°C to +85°C, 2.5 V ±3%). This rating applies to register-to-register paths and includes setup/hold timing margins for LVTTL I/O standards. Performance varies by design topology, but representative circuits like pipelined multipliers achieve 5.1 ns propagation delays. The XCV300-5PQ240C datasheet (DS003-3) specifies exact timing parameters per I/O standard and CLB path.
Does the XCV300-5PQ240C support hot-swap functionality for Compact PCI systems?
Yes, the XCV300-5PQ240C explicitly supports hot-swappable operation in Compact PCI systems, as confirmed in DS003-1 Section "Features". Its I/O structure includes robust ESD protection, programmable weak-keeper circuits to maintain bus states during insertion/removal, and 5 V-tolerant inputs compatible with PCI signaling. The device's DLLs enable dynamic clock resynchronization after reconfiguration, ensuring seamless transition during hot-swap events. This capability is integral to the XCV300-5PQ240C architecture and does not require external circuitry.
How many block RAMs does the XCV300-5PQ240C contain, and what are their configurations?
The XCV300-5PQ240C contains 16 block SelectRAM units, totaling 65,536 bits of dedicated memory. Each block is a fully synchronous, dual-ported 4,096-bit RAM with independent address, data, and control buses per port. Supported configurations include 1×4096, 2×2048, 4×1024, 8×512, and 16×256 - enabling flexible bus-width conversion and true dual-port operation. These blocks are physically arranged in two columns along the vertical edges of the die and connect directly to CLBs and other block RAMs via dedicated routing, as documented in DS003-2 Table 3 and Figure 6.
Can the XCV300-5PQ240C be configured via JTAG, and what other modes are supported?
Yes, the XCV300-5PQ240C supports JTAG configuration as a primary mode, compliant with IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan. In addition, it supports three other methods: master serial (reading configuration from external PROM), slave serial (loading bitstream via dedicated serial pins), and SelectMAP™ (parallel loading through 8- or 16-bit data bus). All modes use the same SRAM-based configuration memory, allowing unlimited reprogramming. The XCV300-5PQ240C's TCK/TMS/TDI/TDO pins are dedicated for JTAG, and its configuration status signals (INIT_B, DONE) behave identically across all modes.
Is the XCV300-5PQ240C still in active production, and what obsolescence guidance applies?
No, the XCV300-5PQ240C is obsolete, as stated in DS003-1 v4.0 (March 2013): "The products listed in this data sheet are obsolete. See XCN10016 for further information." Xilinx discontinued the Virtex family in favor of Spartan and Virtex-II successors. However, Aetrix Electronics maintains verified legacy inventory with full traceability and offers lifecycle support including cross-reference assistance, last-time-buy coordination, and engineering consultation for sustaining engineering of deployed systems using the XCV300-5PQ240C.
