XC2V1000-5FG256C

The XC2V1000-5FG256C is a Virtex®-II platform field programmable gate array offering a balance of programmable logic, embedded memory and flexible I/O for mid-range designs. It provides a compact 256-ball BGA footprint with surface-mount assembly and features suited to designs that require on-chip RAM, dedicated multiplier blocks and a sizeable number of I/O pins.

Designed for commercial-grade applications, the device targets engineers building systems that need reprogrammable logic, on-chip memory and configurable interfaces while operating within a 1.425 V to 1.575 V supply range and a 0 °C to 85 °C ambient range.

Key Features

• Programmable Logic  11,520 logic elements providing fabric for implementing custom digital functions and control logic.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 0.737 Mbits of on-chip RAM (737,280 total bits) for data buffering, FIFOs and state storage.
• Dedicated Arithmetic  Built-in 18-bit × 18-bit multiplier blocks for efficient implementation of DSP and arithmetic-intensive functions (as described in the Virtex‑II architecture).
• Clock Management  Architecture-level support for Digital Clock Manager (DCM) modules to manage clock de-skew, frequency synthesis and phase shifts (Virtex‑II platform feature).
• I/O Capacity and Flexibility  172 user I/O pins in the 256-BGA package to interface with external devices and memories; supports high-performance signaling modes described for the Virtex‑II family.
• Package and Mounting  256-BGA (supplier device package: 256-FBGA 17 × 17) optimized for surface-mount assembly in compact board designs.
• Power and Operating Range  Core supply 1.425 V to 1.575 V; commercial operating temperature from 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Standards and Compliance  RoHS-compliant manufacturing status for regulatory and environmental alignment.

Typical Applications

• High-bandwidth memory interfaces  Use the device’s configurable I/O and on-chip memory to implement SDR/DDR interface logic and memory controllers described in the Virtex‑II platform.
• Signal processing and DSP blocks  Leverage the dedicated 18×18 multipliers and embedded RAM for filters, transforms and arithmetic acceleration.
• Custom protocol bridging  Implement protocol converters and bespoke bus logic using the programmable fabric and 172 I/O pins to connect diverse peripherals.
• Embedded control and glue logic  Replace complex discrete logic with consolidated programmable logic and on-chip memory to simplify board-level design.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced logic and memory mix:  11,520 logic elements paired with approximately 0.737 Mbits of embedded RAM enable mid-range designs to integrate control, buffering and data-path functions on a single device.
• Hardware-accelerated arithmetic:  On-die 18×18 multipliers reduce the need for external DSP components when implementing multiply-intensive algorithms.
• Flexible I/O in a compact package:  172 user I/Os in a 256-BGA (256-FBGA 17×17) form factor lets designers fit substantial interface capability into space-constrained PCBs.
• Platform-level clock flexibility:  Support for DCM modules enables precise clock management and phase control for multi-clock designs (Virtex‑II platform feature).
• Commercial temperature and RoHS compliance:  Specified for 0 °C to 85 °C operation and RoHS-compliant, aligning with standard commercial product requirements.
