XC2000/XC3000/XC4000/XC5200: About decoupling capacitors for FPGAs


Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard


Description
Decoupling Capacitor Values for 2K/3K/4K FPGAs


Solution 1:

The recommended capacitance value and number of capacitors for
decoupling XC2000, XC3000 and XC4000 devices is a 0.1uF capacitor
for each VCC on the LCA. The decoupling capacitors should be
connected as close as possible to the GROUND and VCC planes.
