XCV50E-7PQ240I

The XCV50E-7PQ240I is an industrial-grade Virtex®-E family FPGA offered by AMD in a 240-pin BFQFP package. It delivers a balanced FPGA architecture with 1.8 V core operation and a mix of logic, on-chip RAM, and flexible I/O suited for embedded and high-speed interface designs.

Typical use cases include system-level glue logic, high-performance I/O bridges, and embedded control functions where reprogrammability, moderate gate count, and industrial temperature operation are required.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 1,728 logic elements organized across 384 configurable logic blocks, enabling mid-density FPGA implementations.
• On‑Chip Memory — Approximately 0.0625 Mbits of embedded memory (65,536 total RAM bits) for distributed and block RAM usage.
• I/O Resources — 158 user I/O pins to support a variety of peripheral and interface connections; supports differential signaling standards described for the Virtex‑E family.
• Core Voltage — 1.71 V to 1.89 V supply range for internal logic and memory consistent with the Virtex‑E 1.8 V family.
• Clock Management — Family-level features include multiple fully digital DLLs for clock multiplication/division and duty‑cycle control (Virtex‑E series specification).
• High‑Speed Interface Support — Series-level capability includes support for PCI‑compliant 3.3 V, 32/64-bit, 33/66‑MHz operation and differential I/O standards (LVDS, BLVDS, LVPECL) as documented for Virtex‑E devices.
• Package & Mounting — 240-BFQFP (supplier package listed as 240-PQFP 32×32) in a surface-mount package for standard PCB assembly flows.
• Industrial Temperature — Rated for operation from −40°C to 100°C, suitable for industrial environments.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• High‑speed interface bridging — Implement PCI and other bus bridges using the device’s family-level PCI support and flexible I/O standards.
• Embedded system control — Use the mix of logic and on‑chip RAM to implement control, protocol handling, and glue logic in industrial systems.
• Communications and data acquisition — Deploy differential I/O and clock management features for source-synchronous and LVDS-based data paths.
• Prototyping and reprogrammable logic — SRAM-based in-system configuration enables iterative development and field updates for mid-density designs.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced mid-density integration: 1,728 logic elements and 65,536 bits of on-chip RAM provide a compact platform for moderate-complexity designs without excessive board-level components.
• Flexible I/O standards: Family-level support for multiple differential and single-ended I/O standards helps simplify interface design to external devices and links.
• Industrial temperature rating: −40°C to 100°C operation supports deployment in industrial environments with wider thermal ranges.
• Configurable clocking: Digital DLLs and clock management features (as provided by the Virtex‑E family) enable precise clocking and DDR-friendly duty-cycle control.
• Standard surface-mount packaging: 240-pin BFQFP in a 32×32 PQFP footprint facilitates integration into common PCB assemblies and manufacturing flows.
