This application note describes how to retrieve user-defined data from Xilinx configurationPROMs (XC18V00 and Platform Flash devices) after the same PROM has configured theFPGA. The method to add user-defined data to the configuration PROM file is also discussed.The reference design described in t ...
This application note describes how the existing dual-port block memories in the Spartan™-IIand Virtex™ families can be used as Quad-Port memories. This essentially involves a dataaccess time (halved) versus functionality (doubled) trade-off. The overall bandwidth of the blockmemory in ...
Xilinx FPGAs require at least two power supplies: VCCINTfor core circuitry and VCCO for I/O interface. For the latestXilinx FPGAs, including Virtex-II Pro, Virtex-II and Spartan-3, a third auxiliary supply, VCCAUX may be needed. Inmost cases, VCCAUX can share a power supply with VCCO.The ...
