AMD XCV600-4HQ240I

Overview

XCV600-4HQ240I from Xilinx is a 2.5 V SRAM-based Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) with 661,111 system gates, 15,552 logic cells, and 512 user I/O pins in a 240-pin High Heat Dissipation Quad Flat Pack (HQ240) package. It features four delay-locked loops (DLLs), hierarchical memory (including 98,304-bit block RAM and LUT-based RAM/shift register modes), and supports 66-MHz PCI compliance and hot-swappable Compact PCI operation.

For engineers reviewing the XCV600-4HQ240I datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified architecture details, I/O banking constraints, CLB-level timing behavior, SelectIO™ standard compatibility (LVTTL, HSTL, SSTL), and industrial-temperature (-40°C to +100°C) operational validation - all critical for legacy rework, obsolescence mitigation, and FPGA-based control system sustainment.

Technical Context

The XCV600-4HQ240I implements a hierarchical routing architecture with a General Routing Matrix (GRM), 24 local clock nets, and four global low-skew clock distribution networks. Its CLBs contain dual-slice logic cells with 4-input LUTs, dedicated carry chains, F5/F6 multiplexers for 5–19 input functions, and BUFTs for internal 3-state bus driving.

I/O functionality is organized into eight independent banks, each requiring shared VCCO and (where applicable) single VREF voltage; compatible standards per bank include LVTTL/PCI at 3.3 V, SSTL2 at 2.5 V, and HSTL Classes I/III/IV at 1.5 V. The device uses IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan and includes a die-temperature sensor diode.

FAQ

Is XCV600-4HQ240I still in production or considered obsolete?

XCV600-4HQ240I is officially obsolete per Xilinx documentation (DS003-1 v4.0, March 2013), with no new manufacturing. However, Aetrix Electronics maintains verified, traceable inventory from authorized legacy channels and offers full lifecycle support including configuration file archiving, replacement guidance, and cross-reference validation for the XCV600-4HQ240I.

What configuration modes does XCV600-4HQ240I support?

XCV600-4HQ240I supports four configuration modes: Master Serial (loads from external PROM), Slave Serial (driven by external controller), SelectMAP™ (8- or 16-bit parallel interface), and JTAG (boundary-scan programming). All modes use the same CCLK, DIN/DOUT, and PROGRAM_B signals, with mode selected via M0–M2 pins at power-up.

Can XCV600-4HQ240I interface directly with 3.3 V PCI buses?

Yes, XCV600-4HQ240I is 66-MHz PCI Compliant and supports 3.3 V PCI signaling natively through its SelectIO™ I/O buffers. It meets PCI specification timing and electrical requirements when configured with LVTTL I/O standard, 3.3 V VCCO, and appropriate termination - no level shifters required for standard PCI add-in cards.

Does XCV600-4HQ240I include on-die temperature sensing?

Yes, XCV600-4HQ240I integrates a calibrated die-temperature sensor diode accessible via dedicated analog monitoring pins (TEMP_P/TEMP_N). This allows real-time thermal profiling and dynamic thermal throttling in industrial and telecom applications where ambient conditions exceed commercial temperature ranges.

What is the maximum clock frequency achievable with XCV600-4HQ240I's DLLs?

XCV600-4HQ240I's four DLLs support input clock frequencies up to 200 MHz and provide phase-aligned, low-jitter outputs. When used for clock deskewing or zero-delay buffering, they enable synchronous system operation at 200 MHz - verified in Xilinx benchmark data for register-to-register paths and pipelined multipliers under worst-case industrial conditions.
