XCV50-5FG256C

The XCV50-5FG256C is a Virtex® SRAM-based Field Programmable Gate Array designed for mid-range programmable logic applications. Its architecture blends configurable logic, embedded memory, and a rich I/O fabric to support high-performance custom digital designs.

Targeted at designers who need reprogrammable, high-density logic—together with flexible I/O and clock management—the device is supplied in a 256-pin BGA package and is suitable for commercial-temperature applications.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity: 1,728 logic elements supporting complex combinational and sequential logic implementations; approximately 57,906 system gates as specified.
• Embedded Memory: Approximately 0.033 Mbits of embedded RAM (32,768 bits) for on-chip data storage and buffer requirements.
• I/O Resources: 176 user I/O pins to support a broad range of external interfaces and system connectivity.
• Clock Management: Four dedicated delay-locked loops (DLLs), four primary low‑skew global clock distribution nets and 24 secondary local clock nets for advanced clock control and low-skew distribution.
• High-performance Interfaces: Multi-standard SelectIO™ support (multiple high-performance interface standards) and fast external memory interfaces as described in the Virtex family specification.
• Arithmetic and DSP Support: Dedicated carry logic and multiplier support for accelerated arithmetic and DSP functions.
• Configuration and Re-programmability: SRAM-based in-system configuration with unlimited re-programmability and multiple programming modes (including SelectMAP™, master/slave serial and JTAG modes).
• Process and Quality: Manufactured on a 0.22 μm 5-layer-metal process and 100% factory tested.
• Package & Mounting: 256-BGA (supplier package: 256-FBGA, 17×17), surface-mount package for board-level assembly.
• Electrical & Environmental: Core supply voltage range 2.375 V to 2.625 V; commercial operating temperature range 0 °C to 85 °C. RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• PCI and CompactPCI systems: The device supports PCI-compliant operation and hot‑swappability for CompactPCI-based implementations as specified for devices in the Virtex family.
• High-performance interface bridging: With abundant I/O and SelectIO capabilities, use this FPGA to implement protocol translation and custom high-speed interface logic.
• Custom digital processing and control: Ideal for mid-range custom logic, control functions, and prototype designs that benefit from in-system reprogramming.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced performance and density: Provides a mix of logic elements, embedded RAM, and I/O that fits mid-range programmable logic needs without over-specifying system resources.
• Advanced clocking resources: Four DLLs and multiple global/local clock nets enable precise clock distribution for timing-critical designs.
• Flexible in-system configuration: SRAM-based architecture with multiple programming modes permits rapid iteration and field updates.
• Dedicated arithmetic support: Built-in carry chains and multiplier support reduce implementation complexity for arithmetic-intensive functions.
• Proven manufacturing process: Fabricated on a 0.22 μm 5-layer-metal process and subjected to 100% factory testing for predictable supply quality.
