XCV50E-8PQ240C

The XCV50E-8PQ240C is a Virtex®-E field programmable gate array (FPGA) in a 240-pin BFQFP/PQFP surface-mount package. It provides a compact, reconfigurable logic resource with 1.8 V core supply and commercial-grade operating range, suitable for designs that require on-chip logic, embedded RAM and flexible I/O.

This device targets applications requiring moderate logic density and on-chip memory with a rich I/O count; it combines 1,728 logic elements, 65,536 bits of embedded RAM and 158 I/O pins in a 240-pin package.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity – 1,728 logic elements (cells) and approximately 71,693 equivalent gates provide reprogrammable logic for custom digital functions.
• On-Chip Memory – 65,536 total RAM bits (approximately 0.06 Mbits) for embedded buffering, FIFOs and local data storage.
• I/O Density – 158 available I/O pins for interfacing with peripherals, memory devices and external logic.
• Power and Voltage – Core voltage supply range from 1.71 V to 1.89 V to match 1.8 V system domains; I/O standards supported at the family level in Virtex‑E devices.
• Package and Mounting – 240-pin BFQFP (supplier package: 240‑PQFP, 32×32) in surface-mount format for compact board-level integration.
• Operating Range – Commercial grade, 0 °C to 85 °C for standard temperature environments.
• Standards and Series Capabilities (Virtex‑E family) – Series-level features include high-density 1.8 V architecture, support for multiple high-performance I/O standards and advanced clock and memory-support circuitry as documented for Virtex‑E devices.
• Compliance – RoHS compliant for lead-free manufacturing processes.

Typical Applications

• High-performance memory interfaces – Use on-chip logic and embedded RAM to implement memory controllers, buffering and data-path logic for external memories.
• PCI and expansion bridging – Family-level PCI support enables implementation of 32/64-bit PCI system functions and interface bridging in embedded systems.
• High-speed serial and differential I/O – Leverage the Virtex‑E family’s differential signaling and high-performance I/O standards for high-bandwidth data paths and serial interfaces.
• Custom digital processing – Implement application-specific signal processing, protocol handling or glue logic within a reprogrammable fabric.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, reprogrammable logic: 1,728 logic elements provide flexible on-board programmability without adding fixed-function ASICs.
• Integrated on-chip RAM: 65,536 bits of embedded RAM reduce external memory needs for many buffering and control tasks.
• High I/O count in a small package: 158 I/Os in a 240-pin PQFP/BFQFP package simplify board routing while maintaining connectivity.
• Commercial-grade operating range: Rated 0 °C to 85 °C for standard electronics applications.
• RoHS compliant: Supports lead-free manufacturing and compliance requirements.
• Surface-mount package: 240‑pin surface-mount footprint for automated assembly and compact PCB design.
