XC18V02PC44C0936

Overview

The XC18V02PC44C0936 is a configuration memory device manufactured by AMD (Xilinx), belonging to the XC18V00 series. It utilizes EEPROM storage technology with a capacity of 2 Mbit, organized as 256K x 8 bits. The component operates at a maximum frequency of 20 MHz and supports both parallel and serial programming modes. It functions within a supply voltage range of 3.0 V to 3.6 V, with a typical operating voltage of 3.3 V. The device is housed in a 44-pin Plastic Quad Flat Package (PQFP-44) suitable for surface mount installation. It is rated for commercial temperature operation, spanning from 0°C to +70°C.

Feature Summary

• Supports in-system programming via JTAG interface for flexible configuration updates
• Provides non-volatile storage for FPGA configuration data with high endurance
• Compatible with Xilinx Spartan-II and Virtex FPGA families

Applications

• Configuration storage for Xilinx Spartan-II FPGAs
• Configuration storage for Xilinx Virtex FPGAs
• Industrial control systems requiring reliable FPGA boot data

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '0936' against official AMD documentation to confirm manufacturing date code or lot information. Ensure the PQFP-44 package matches your PCB footprint requirements. Confirm that the commercial temperature grade meets your operational environment specifications before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this part when configuring Xilinx Spartan-II or Virtex devices requiring 2 Mbit of non-volatile storage. Compare against other XC18V00 variants based on required capacity and package type. Ensure the 20 MHz clock speed aligns with your system's configuration timing constraints.

Part Context

This component is part of the XC18V00 family of configuration PROMs designed specifically for Xilinx programmable logic devices. These devices allow designers to store configuration bitstreams externally, reducing FPGA pin count requirements. The XC18V02 variant offers a balance of density and speed for mid-range FPGA applications.

Replacement Considerations

XC18V02PC44I: Industrial temperature grade version (-40°C to +85°C). XC18V02VQG44C: VQFP-44 package alternative.
