The XC9500XV 2.5V CPLD family from Xilinx is based upon an advanced architecture that combines system flexibility and low cost to allow for faster time-to-market and lower manufacturing and support costs. Designed to operate with an internal core voltage of 2.5V, the XC9500XV offers 30% lower power consumption than 3.3V CPLDs, resulting in lower heat dissipation and increased long-term device reliability. The XC9500XV silicon plus the powerful WebPOWERED software offers a valuable logic solution that can't be beat when it comes to cost and ease-of-use.

High Performance Through Advanced Technology

Manufactured on the latest generation 0.25 process, the new XC9500XV CPLDs provide the same advanced architectural features and densities of the 3.3V XC9500XL family, with device offerings of 36-, 72-, 144- and 288-macrocells. High performance version offering pin-to-pin delays as low as 3.5ns and system frequencies as fast as 275 MHz will be available later this year. The 2.5V XC9500XV devices also include optimized support for in-system programming (ISP) through the industry's most extensive IEEE1149.1 JTAG and IEEE 1532 programming capability which helps to streamline the manufacturing, testing and programming of CPLD-based electronic products, including remote field upgrades.

The System Designers' CPLD

The advanced architecture that is employed in the XC9500XV CPLD allows for easy design integration, thus empowering the designer to fully concentrate on this system design, and not so much on chip-level details. The unique features offered in the XC9500XV include a 54-input block fan-in which contributes to the device's superior pin-locking capability, built-in input hysteresis for improved noise margin, bus-hold circuitry for better I/O control, hot-plugging capability to eliminate the need for power sequencing, and local and global clock control to provide maximum flexibility.
