Virtex-II Pro and Virtex-II Pro X Platform FPGAs: DC and Switching Characteristics
Power-On Power Supply Requirements
Xilinx FPGAs require a certain amount of supply current
during power-on to insure proper device initialization. The
actual current consumed depends on the power-on ramp
rate of the power supply.
The VCCINT power supply must ramp on, monotonically, no
faster than 200 μs and no slower than 50 ms. Ramp-on is
defined as: 0 VDC to minimum supply voltages (see
Table 2).
VCCAUX and VCCO can power on at any ramp rate. Power
supplies can be turned on in any sequence.
Table 5 shows the minimum current required by Virtex-II Pro
devices for proper power-on and configuration.
If the current minimums shown in Table 5 are met, the
device powers on properly after all three supplies have
passed through their power-on reset threshold voltages.
Once initialized and configured, use the power calculator to
estimate current drain on these supplies.
For more information on VCCAUX, VCCO, and configuration
mode, refer to Chapter 3 in the Virtex-II Pro Platform FPGA
User Guide.

1. Power-on current parameter values are specified for Commercial Grade. For Industrial Grade values, multiply Commercial Grade
values by 1.5.
2. ICCOMIN values listed here apply to the entire device (all banks).
General Power Supply Requirements
Proper decoupling of all FPGA power supplies is essential.
Consult Xilinx Application Note XAPP623 for detailed infor-
mation on power distribution system design.
VCCAUX powers critical resources in the FPGA. Therefore,
this supply voltage is especially susceptible to power supply
noise. VCCAUX can share a power plane with VCCO, but only
if VCCO does not have excessive noise. Staying within
simultaneously switching output (SSO) limits is essential for
keeping power supply noise to a minimum. Refer to
XAPP689, “Managing Ground Bounce in Large FPGAs,” to
determine the number of simultaneously switching outputs
allowed per bank at the package level.
Changes in VCCAUX voltage beyond 200 mV peak-to-peak
should take place at a rate no faster than 10 mV per milli-
second.
Recommended practices that can help reduce jitter and
period distortion are described in Xilinx Answer Record
13756.
