Answers Database 96 DATA BOOK/ISP APPLICATION GUIDE: Inconsistency in High-drive output current Record #2105 Product Family: Documentation Product Line: Data Book Product Part: Programmable Logic Data Book Problem Title: 96 DATA BOOK/ISP APPLICATION GUIDE: Inconsistency in High-drive output current Problem Description: Urgency: Standard General Description: There is an inconsistency in value for high-drive output current. The problem exists in: 1. Programmable Logic Data Book Revs. 7/96 and 9/96 2. ISP Application Guide Rev. 1/97 Features section on Page 3-17 in the 96 data books says: High-drive 24mA outputs with 3.3V or 5V I/O capability. ^^^^^^ But the DC Characteristics Over Recommended Operating Conditions on Page 3-19 says: Vol O/P low voltage for 5V operation Iol=24mA O/P low voltage for 3.3V operation Iol=10mA ^^^^^^^ Note that the information on Iol is conflicting. Page 3-17 says 24mA, but Page 3-19 says 10mA. Solution 1: The table on page 3-19 is correct. You'll notice that not only page 3-17 is incorrect, but every front page of each XC9500 device is incorrect, also. This inconsistency and will be corrected for the next publication.
