AMD XCV600-5BG560I

Overview

XCV600-5BG560I 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 560-ball BGA package. It features four delay-locked loops (DLLs), hierarchical memory (including 98,304-bit block RAM and LUT-based RAM/shift registers), and supports 66-MHz PCI compliance and hot-swappable Compact PCI operation.

For engineers reviewing the XCV600-5BG560I datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified architecture details, I/O banking constraints, CLB-level timing behavior, SelectIO™ standard compatibility, and obsolescence-aware selection guidance for legacy Virtex system upgrades and industrial control rework.

Technical Context

The XCV600-5BG560I implements a hierarchical routing architecture with a General Routing Matrix (GRM), 24 local clock nets, and four primary low-skew global clock distribution networks. Its CLBs contain dual-slice logic 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 banks, each requiring shared VCCO and single VREF voltage; supported standards include LVTTL (5 V tolerant), LVCMOS2, HSTL Class I/III/IV, SSTL3/SSTL2, GTL/GTL+, and PCI 3.3 V. Configuration occurs via master serial, slave serial, SelectMAP™, or JTAG modes using external PROM or host controller.

Manufacturer

Xilinx, now part of AMD, pioneered SRAM-based FPGA architecture and developed the Virtex family as its flagship high-performance programmable logic platform for demanding system-on-chip applications.

The Virtex family was designed for high-speed, high-density digital system integration - targeting applications requiring PCI compliance, multi-standard I/O, deterministic timing, and reconfigurable hardware acceleration in industrial, aerospace, and communications equipment.

FAQ

Is XCV600-5BG560I still in production?

No - XCV600-5BG560I is officially obsolete per Xilinx documentation (DS003-1 v4.0, March 2013). Aetrix Electronics maintains limited legacy inventory with full traceability and provides engineering support for sustainment and last-time-buy programs. Replacement guidance and migration paths are available upon request.

What configuration modes does XCV600-5BG560I support?

XCV600-5BG560I supports four configuration modes: master serial (loads bitstream from external PROM), slave serial (host-driven), SelectMAP™ (8-bit parallel interface), and JTAG (boundary-scan programming). All modes use the same dedicated pins (DIN, CCLK, INIT, DONE, PROGRAM), with mode selected by M0/M1/M2 strap pins during power-up.

Can XCV600-5BG560I interface directly with 5 V logic?

Yes - XCV600-5BG560I IOBs are 5 V tolerant in LVTTL, PCI 5 V, and LVCMOS2 input configurations. However, output drivers require VCCO = 3.3 V for 5 V-tolerant operation, and VREF must be unconnected or grounded when using 5 V–compatible inputs. Mixing 5 V–tolerant and non-tolerant standards within the same I/O bank is prohibited.

How many clock domains can XCV600-5BG560I manage simultaneously?

XCV600-5BG560I supports up to four independent clock domains via its four dedicated DLLs, each capable of phase alignment, duty-cycle correction, and frequency synthesis. Additional domains may be implemented using local clock nets (24 secondary nets), though without DLL-level jitter suppression or skew control.

What is the maximum operating frequency of XCV600-5BG560I's block RAM?

XCV600-5BG560I block RAM operates synchronously at up to 200 MHz - matching the device's maximum system clock rate. Dual-port access allows concurrent read and write operations at full speed, with setup/hold times fully characterized in DS003-3 (DC and Switching Characteristics, Module 3).
