XCV600E-7BG560I

Field Programmable Gate Array Overview

The XCV600E-7BG560I is a Virtex-E Field Programmable Gate Array manufactured by Xilinx, utilizing a 0.18 μm CMOS process with 1.8 V core logic and 3.3 V I/O. It features 985,882 system gates, 186,624 logic gates, and 15,552 logic cells within a 48 x 72 CLB array. The device provides 294,912 bits of Block SelectRAM and 221,184 bits of distributed RAM. Operating at the -7 speed grade in a BG560 package, it supports up to 404 user I/Os.

Field Programmable Gate Array Feature Summary

• SRAM-based architecture enabling unlimited re-programmability via external SPROM or internal configuration modes.
• Sophisticated memory hierarchy combining True Dual-Port Block SelectRAM with configurable distributed RAM for high-bandwidth data handling.
• Flexible SelectI/O+ technology supporting multiple interface standards including LVDS, BLVDS, and LVPECL.
• Eight fully digital Delay-Locked Loops (DLLs) for precise clock distribution and domain control.

Field Programmable Gate Array Applications

• High-performance interfaces to external memories such as 200 MHz ZBT SRAMs and 200 Mb/s DDR SDRAMs.
• PCI compliant 3.3 V, 32/64-bit, 33/66-MHz bus implementations.
• Complex digital signal processing and parallel data path applications requiring dedicated carry logic.

Field Programmable Gate Array Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix 'I' confirms the industrial temperature range (-40°C to +100°C). Confirm the '7' speed grade matches the required timing constraints for your design. Ensure the BG560 package dimensions align with your PCB footprint specifications before finalizing procurement.

Field Programmable Gate Array Selection Notes

Select this component when designs require approximately one million system gates with high-density block RAM resources. The Virtex-E family offers improved performance over standard Virtex devices while maintaining pin compatibility for many packages. Consider the -7 speed grade if synchronous system clock rates up to 240 MHz are sufficient for the application requirements.

Field Programmable Gate Array Part Context

This part belongs to the Virtex-E 1.8 V FPGA family, which represents an evolutionary step from the original Virtex series. It utilizes an advanced 0.18 μm six-layer metal process to achieve higher silicon efficiency and lower power consumption compared to previous generations. The family includes devices ranging from 58 k to 4 M system gates.

Field Programmable Gate Array Replacement Considerations

Virtex-E devices are not bitstream-compatible with the original Virtex family, though designs can be compiled into equivalent parts. For migration within the Virtex-E family, verify banking rules and VCCO/VREF configurations, as input buffers for LVTTL and LVCMOS standards are powered by VCCO rather than VCCINT.
