What is Xilinx XA6SLX75T-2FGG484I Chip


Xilinx XA6SLX75T-2FGG484I is a type of programmable logic that is based on
the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). It is one of the FPGAs from the stable
of Xilinx. AMD, for that is now the rebranded name of Xilinx, is a major
manufacturer of FPGAs.

In this article, we talk extensively about the technical specifications of the Xilinx
XA6SLX75T-2FGG484I, including how to choose the best FPGA in the market.

Xilinx XA6SLX75T-2FGG484I Technical

Specifications

Here are some of the unique features of the Xilinx XA6SLX75T-2FGG484I:

Category

It is categorized as an embeddable Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). As such,


the engineers or consumers are at liberty to decide on the best way to customize it.
The embeddable design also allows for instant integration into a wide range of
applications without hassles.

Technology

The technology used in designing a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is very
essential, because it plays an important role in determining the overall functionality of
the board. In the case of the Xilinx XA6SLX75T-2FGG484I, its technology is
CMOS.

Worthy of mentioning is that the CMOS technology became popular and serves as an
upgrade to the PMOS and NMOS logics. At the time, both the PMOS and NMOS
were used to implement a wide range of logic gates for FPGAs.

With the introduction of the CMOS technology, those two are no longer commonly
used. By default, the CMOS technology combines most of the functions of the NMOS
and PMOS logics to improve FPGA design.

To that end, the use of the CMOS technology on the Xilinx XA6SLX75T-2FGG484I
FPGA aids in the improved performance of the Integrated Circuit (IC). This is
possible because of the technology’s innovative input in minimizing or
lowering power dissipation. With this, it becomes easier to integrate or add more
CMOS or logic gates to the Integrated Circuit (IC).

CMOS stands for Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor.

Logic Cells

The number of logic cells or elements on the Xilinx XA6SLX75T-2FGG484I is


74,637. Considering that the CMOS technology that powers it offers high speed, it is
possible for these gates to function optimally in the shortest time possible.

Moreover, the Xilinx XA6SLX75T-2FGG484I has a speed grade rating of 2. Also, it


enjoys higher noise margins in both states.

Peak Reflow Temperature

Peak reflow temperature has to do with the maximum temperature allowed on a Field
Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). This consideration is made when the temperature
of the board nears the “reflow zone.”

For emphasis, the reflow zone is the zone or point in the temperature where it peaks
and is not allowed to go overboard.

Clock Frequency

Clock is used in a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) to determine the


frequency of generating pulses on the board via the processor of the clock generator.
More often than not, the pulses generated in the process are used to synchronize or
unify the operations of the other components on the board.

The role of the clock in a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is to help in
generating and distributing the various signal wave frequencies. By doing this and
depending on the clock rate, the board’s data can be processed faster.

The clock frequency of the Xilinx XA6SLX75T-2FGG484I is 667 MHz. This is


accordance with the specifications of FPGAs with numbers that should not be above 1
Gigahertz (GHz).

Input and Output (I/O)

Input and Output of a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) refers to the physical
structures on the board that allow for seamless connection of the Integrated Circuit
(IC) to other relevant systems.

With its programmability and interfacing between external circuits and the Integrated
Circuits (ICs), the Xilinx XA6SLX75T-2FGG484I’s I/O is used to match the
requirements of establishing connection with external electrical devices/systems.

How to Pick the Best Field Programmable Gate Arrays

(FPGAs)

Indeed, Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) have helped in simplifying the
process of designing a circuit board. But if you must invest in one, it is expedient to
know how to pick one.

Here are some tips on picking the best Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA):

1. Choose Popular Models from the Best

Manufacturers

At the end of the day, the manufacturer of the FPGA determines the acceptability.
This is because the reputation of the manufacturer has a way of influencing buyer’s
decision. For now, the duo of Xilinx (AMD) and Altera (Intel) are the major
manufacturers of Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs).

Different FPGA consumers have different reasons for choosing either of the two. For
example, Xilinx is preferred by most because of the long-standing reputation in
the FPGA market. Xilinx, now AMD, offers a variety of FPGAs that fit into different
needs of the target market.

In addition to prioritizing a manufacturer, it is also pertinent to consider other


important factors, such as:

Product Series and Applicable Use Cases

One of the factors you want to have in mind when picking an FPGA manufacturer is
the series of the board, as well as the use cases. For example, the Xilinx
XA6SLX75T-2FGG484I is categorized under the Spartan-6 series and is primarily
used for automotive designs.

Ranges

The ranges of the FPGAs have to do with the cost. There are boards in the low,
middle and high-end ranges. You want to consider your budget so you can pick the
FPGA that fits into that price.

2. Instructional Materials

Find out if the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) has instructional materials
that can aid you in understanding how it works. This includes the datasheet so you can
get to familiarize yourself with the technical specifications of the board.

In addition, take note of the format of the instructional materials. While some
manufacturers will provide documents, others may go the extra mile to add
instructional videos to walk you through the process of using the board.

For example, Xilinx has since gone mainstream with some of its FPGAs, notable
among which is the Spartan series that are now used in some universities to offer
FPGA-related courses.

Conclusion

With the Xilinx XA6SLX75T-2FGG484I, you and your engineer/designer can


customize the board to work/function optimally in any automotive application.
