The XC4000XV features a leading edge 0.25 micron family of four members
that deliver up to 500,000 system gates, ranging in density from 10,982
to 20,102 logic cells. The XC4000XV features industry-leading system performance
of over 100 MHz while minimizing power consumption in today's high performance
systems. The 2.5-volt XC4000XV family extends and builds on the successes
of the 5-volt XC4000 and the 3-volt XC4000XL series by reaching new heights
in process technology, density, and performance.
500,000 System Gates
The XC4000XV family, with up to 500,000 system
gates, offers twice the capacity of competitive products. Plus, you
can maintain a high level of performance; efficient clock buffering and
abundant, fast, segmented routing gives you the shortest possible interconnect
delays
High Capacity:
-
30,000 to 500,000 system gates
-
Over 18,000 dedicated flip-flops
-
Over 270,000 RAM bits
-
Up to 448 user I/O

-
Patented SelectRAMTM memory, fully synchronous
timing, true dual-port capability
-
IEEE 1149.1-compatible boundary scan logic
-
Internal 3-state bus capability
-
12/24 mA sink current per output
-
Wide edge decoders
Supply Voltage
The XC4000XV features 2.5-volt internal operation with 3.3-volt I/Os to
allow optimal performance and compatibility with existing voltage standards.
Combined with the Xilinx segmented routing architecture, the XC4000XV family
delivers on extremely low power consumption with higher performance, higher
utilization and higher reliability.
Less than Half the Power Consumption
The XC4000XV device only consumes 30% of the power
of the equivalent XC4000XL device. This savings is derived from efficient
design layout, smaller process geometries, and lower operating voltages.
Low Power Consumption:
-
0.35/0.25 micron 5LM process
-
Efficient design optimized for minimal power consumption
-
Reduced core operating voltage saves power

0.25 Micron Process Technology
The XC4000XV family is the first to deliver programmable logic using 0.25
micron technology, leading the logic industry into the most advanced semiconductor
manufacturing process. In partnership with United Microelectronics Corporation
(UMC), the Xilinx XC40125XV is the first logic device which incorporates
25 million transistors in a single piece of silicon - more than three times
that of today's highest performance microprocessors, such as the Intel
Pentium II with 7.5 million transistors.
The XV family is also the first to incorporate a 0.25 micron CMOS process
with dual-gate oxide and five metal layers. UMC and Xilinx have jointly
developed 0.25 micron FPGA technology. Xilinx's partnerships with industry
leading manufacturing partners has directly aided in the delivery of advanced
processes, and builds on a five year road map that will culminate in the
availability of 2,000,000 gate FPGAs in the year 2000.

Architectural Advantages and Family Highlights
The XC4000XV family is an advanced implementation of the XC4000XL architecture
with Xilinx segmented routing and distributed RAM. These features make
an ideal platform for implementing cores. Local routing resources in short,
segmented routing allow for predictable performance regardless of how much
logic is employed and how large the device is. With non-segmented interconnect
architectures, cores will slow down unpredictably as surrounding logic
is added or as larger devices are required. Performance predictability
is a requirement for designs with intellectual property because designers
choose cores independently of device density and expect performance to
remain the same as the design evolves. Further, due to footprint-compatibility
advantages, current XC4000XL customers can easily and immediately upgrade
to the higher-density XC4000XV products.
