The XC2V250-5FGG456C is a Virtex®-II Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) in a 456-ball BGA package designed for commercial applications. It provides a mid-range FPGA fabric with 3,456 logic elements (cells), roughly 250,000 system gates and approximately 0.44 Mbits of embedded RAM, making it suitable for designs that require moderate logic capacity, on-chip memory and flexible I/O.

Built on the Virtex-II platform, the device supports high-performance I/O and memory-centric functions and is intended for applications that need configurable logic, dedicated arithmetic blocks and configurable clock management within a surface-mount 456-BBGA footprint.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity – 3,456 logic elements (cells) and an estimated 250,000 system gates provide a balanced resource set for mid-range FPGA designs.
• Embedded Memory – Total on-chip RAM of 442,368 bits (approximately 0.44 Mbits) for distributed and block-based storage in application logic.
• I/O Resources – 200 user I/Os to support a variety of parallel and high-speed interface needs in board-level systems.
• Dedicated Arithmetic Resources – Series-level Virtex-II features include 18-bit × 18-bit multiplier blocks useful for DSP and arithmetic-intensive functions.
• Clock Management – Virtex-II platform clocking features such as Digital Clock Manager (DCM) elements for deskew and frequency synthesis are supported at the series level.
• Package & Mounting – Surface-mount 456-BBGA package; supplier device package listed as 456-FBGA (23×23) for compact board integration.
• Electrical & Thermal – Core supply range of 1.425 V to 1.575 V and commercial operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C.
• Compliance – RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Memory Interface Controllers – Use on-chip logic and I/O to implement SDR/DDR or other memory interface logic and bridging functions, leveraging the series’ memory-interface capabilities.
• Signal Processing / DSP – Local multipliers and embedded RAM make this device suitable for mid-range DSP tasks such as filtering, transforms and data aggregation.
• High-Density I/O Glue Logic – 200 I/Os enable complex interface glue and protocol adaptation between ASICs, processors and peripherals on custom boards.
• Prototyping and Custom Control – Reconfigurable fabric and moderate logic density support hardware prototyping, control logic and custom acceleration blocks for commercial systems.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory: 3,456 logic elements paired with approximately 0.44 Mbits of on-chip RAM provide a useful combination for mixed-logic and memory-heavy functions without requiring larger footprint devices.
• Ample I/O Count: 200 user I/Os support complex board-level interfacing and multiple parallel buses, reducing the need for external I/O expanders.
• Dedicated DSP Primitives: Series-level 18×18 multipliers and carry logic simplify implementation of arithmetic-intensive algorithms and accelerate DSP tasks in hardware.
• Compact Surface-Mount Package: The 456-ball BGA (456-FBGA 23×23 supplier footprint) offers a compact, high-pin-count solution for space-constrained PCB designs.
• Commercial Temperature Range: Rated for 0 °C to 85 °C, suitable for standard commercial electronic products and environments.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets regulatory requirements for lead-free manufacturing processes.
