Product details
Overview
XCV50-6TQ144C from Xilinx is a 2.5 V SRAM-based Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) with 57,906 system gates, 1,728 logic cells in a 16×24 CLB array, and 98 user I/O pins in a 144-pin Thin Quad Flat Pack (TQFP) package. It features four delay-locked loops (DLLs), supports 66-MHz PCI compliance, and delivers up to 200 MHz system performance for high-speed digital signal processing and embedded control applications.
For engineers reviewing the XCV50-6TQ144C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified architecture details, I/O banking constraints, SelectIO™ interface compatibility, block RAM configuration options, and speed-grade–specific timing behavior critical for legacy system maintenance and requalification.
Technical Context
The XCV50-6TQ144C implements a hierarchical routing architecture with a General Routing Matrix (GRM), local VersaBlock interconnect, and peripheral VersaRing I/O routing - enabling pin-locking and PCB layout reuse across logic revisions. Its CLBs contain four logic cells each, with dedicated carry chains, F5/F6 multiplexers for 5- to 19-input functions, and LUTs configurable as 16-bit RAM, 32-bit RAM, dual-ported RAM, or shift registers.
It integrates eight 4,096-bit synchronous dual-ported Block SelectRAMs (32,768 total bits), four primary low-skew global clock nets plus 24 secondary local clock nets, and IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan logic. All I/Os support multi-standard SelectIO™ interfaces including LVTTL, LVCMOS2, PCI 3.3 V/5 V, SSTL2/3, HSTL Class I/III/IV, and GTL/GTL+, subject to bank-specific VCCO and VREF voltage constraints.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FPGA-based logic implementation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| XCV50-5TQ144C | Slower speed grade (-5): 6.4 ns address decoder delay vs. -6's 6.0 ns; identical logic density, I/O count, and package | Suitable for non-critical timing paths where 200 MHz system clock not required; lower power at same frequency | Select when design meets timing with margin and cost optimization is prioritized over peak performance |
| XCV100-6TQ144C | Higher density: 108,904 system gates, 2,700 logic cells, same -6 speed grade and TQ144 package | Required when additional logic resources needed for expanded feature sets or future-proofing; same PCB footprint | Choose for scalability path within identical package; verify thermal dissipation and VCCINT current limits |
Compared with XCV50-6TQ144C, the -5 variant trades 6% timing margin for lower cost and power, while the XCV100-6TQ144C retains identical pinout and speed but doubles logic capacity - making it suitable for incremental feature upgrades without board redesign.

FAQ
Is XCV50-6TQ144C still in production?
No, XCV50-6TQ144C is obsolete per Xilinx documentation (DS003-1 v4.0, March 2013). It is no longer manufactured, but Aetrix Electronics maintains traceable inventory for legacy system support and offers lifecycle management services to extend usability through controlled distribution and engineering validation.
What configuration modes does XCV50-6TQ144C support?
XCV50-6TQ144C supports four configuration modes: Master Serial (reads bitstream from external PROM), Slave Serial (bitstream loaded via DIN/CCLK), SelectMAP™ (8- or 16-bit parallel loading), and JTAG (boundary-scan programming via TDI/TDO). Mode selection is controlled by mode pins M0–M2 during power-up.
Can XCV50-6TQ144C interface with 5 V TTL logic?
Yes - XCV50-6TQ144C IOBs are 5 V tolerant for LVTTL and PCI 5 V standards when VCCO = 3.3 V. However, 5 V tolerance applies only to inputs; outputs are limited to VCCO (max 3.3 V), and VREF-dependent standards like HSTL or SSTL are not 5 V tolerant.
Does XCV50-6TQ144C include on-chip temperature sensing?
Yes, XCV50-6TQ144C integrates a die-temperature sensor diode as part of its flexible architecture features. This analog sensor requires external biasing and measurement circuitry; it is not a digital thermal monitor and does not auto-throttle - used for system-level thermal profiling during qualification.
What software tools support XCV50-6TQ144C design and verification?
XCV50-6TQ144C is supported by Xilinx Foundation™ and Alliance Series™ development systems (discontinued), with full compatibility for schematic entry, VHDL/Verilog synthesis, place-and-route, and timing analysis. Legacy toolchains remain functional on Windows XP/7 platforms; bitstream generation requires version-matched software per DS003-1 v4.0 requirements.
