XC17V04VQ44I

Overview

The XC17V04VQ44I is a configuration memory device manufactured by AMD (formerly Xilinx). It features a memory density of 4M x 1 bits, organized as 524288 words with an 8-bit width. The component operates in synchronous mode and is housed in a 44-pin Plastic Quad Flat Package (PQFP) with a TQFP footprint. It has a moisture sensitivity level of 3 and contains one functional unit.

Feature Summary

• Provides non-volatile storage for FPGA configuration data
• Supports synchronous operation for reliable data transfer
• Designed for direct integration into system boards

Applications

• Configuration of Xilinx Field Programmable Gate Arrays
• Embedded systems requiring persistent boot code storage
• Industrial control hardware initialization

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer source carefully, as Rochester Electronics may distribute this part. Confirm lead times and availability directly with suppliers. Ensure the package type matches the PCB design requirements. Check for RoHS compliance status if required by specific regulations.

Selection Notes

Select this part when a 4M-bit configuration capacity is required for compatible Xilinx devices. The PQFP-44 package must be supported by the target board layout. Consider the synchronous interface timing requirements against the system clock speed. Verify that the voltage levels match the FPGA configuration port specifications.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Spartan-II/III configuration memory family. It serves as a PROM alternative for loading bitstreams into FPGAs. The VQ suffix indicates the plastic quad flat package variant. It is distinct from larger capacity parts like the XC17V08 series.

Replacement Considerations

XC17V04VQ44C is a commercial grade equivalent. XC17V04VQG44I is a qualified version. Verify pin compatibility before substitution.
