Virtex-II Pro and Virtex-II Pro X Platform FPGAs: Introduction and Overview
implemented. In system mode, a Virtex-II Pro device will
continue to function while executing non-test Bound-
ary-Scan instructions. In test mode, Boundary-Scan test
instructions control the I/O pins for testing purposes. The
Virtex-II Pro Test Access Port (TAP) supports BYPASS,
PRELOAD, SAMPLE, IDCODE, and USERCODE non-test
instructions. The EXTEST, INTEST, and HIGHZ test instruc-
tions are also supported.
Configuration
Virtex-II Pro / Virtex-II Pro devices are configured by load-
ing the bitstream into internal configuration memory using
one of the following modes:
• Slave-serial mode
• Master-serial mode
• Slave SelectMAP mode
• Master SelectMAP mode
• Boundary-Scan mode (IEEE 1532)
A Data Encryption Standard (DES) decryptor is available
on-chip to secure the bitstreams. One or two triple-DES key
sets can be used to optionally encrypt the configuration data.
The Xilinx System Advanced Configuration Enviornment
(System ACE) family offers high-capacity and flexible solu-
tion for FPGA configuration as well as program/data storage
for the processor. See DS080, System ACE CompactFlash
Solution for more information.
Readback and Integrated Logic Analyzer
Configuration data stored in Virtex-II Pro / Virtex-II Pro con-
figuration memory can be read back for verification. Along
with the configuration data, the contents of all flip-flops and
latches, distributed SelectRAM+, and block SelectRAM+
memory resources can be read back. This capability is use-
ful for real-time debugging.
The Xilinx ChipScope Integrated Logic Analyzer (ILA) cores
and Integrated Bus Analyzer (IBA) cores, along with the
ChipScope Pro Analyzer software, provide a complete solu-
tion for accessing and verifying user designs within
Virtex-II Pro devices.
IP Core and Reference Support
Intellectual Property is part of the Platform FPGA solution.
In addition to the existing FPGA fabric cores, the list below
shows some of the currently available hardware and soft-
ware intellectual properties specially developed for
Virtex-II Pro / Virtex-II Pro X by Xilinx. Each IP core is mod-
ular, portable, Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) inde-
pendent, and CoreConnect compatible for ease of design
migration. Refer to www.xilinx.com/ipcenter for the latest
and most complete list of cores.
Hardware Cores
• Bus Infrastructure cores (arbiters, bridges, and more)
• Memory cores (DDR, Flash, and more)
• Peripheral cores (UART, IIC, and more)
• Networking cores (ATM, Ethernet, and more)
Software Cores
• Boot code
• Test code
• Device drivers
• Protocol stacks
• RTOS integration
• Customized board support package
