Specifications
The XC5VSX95T-1FFG1136C is a capable mid-to-high density FPGA from the Virtex-5 SXT family (Xilinx, now AMD), crafted on the reliable 65nm process and tailored for applications heavy on DSP and high-bandwidth serial I/O.
Engineers usually jump to these key points:
- ~94,208 logic cells (with 14,720 adaptive logic modules / slices) — decent headroom for multi-channel DSP filters, video processing paths, FFT cores, or complex signal-handling pipelines
- 16 RocketIO GTX transceivers — these provide solid multi-gigabit serial performance, typically supporting up to ~6.5 Gbps in deployed systems (excellent for 10Gb Ethernet, PCIe Gen1/2, Serial RapidIO, or custom high-speed links)
- 640 user I/Os — plenty of flexible pins for connecting to external DDR2/3 memory, fast ADCs/DACs, or system interfaces
- Embedded block RAM around 8.8 Mbit (plus ~1.5 Mbit distributed RAM for quick buffers and small FIFOs)
- Strong DSP48E slice count (around 488) — second-gen 25×18 multipliers with 48-bit accumulators, great for high-throughput fixed- or floating-point arithmetic, filters, and math-intensive tasks
- Package: 1136-pin FFG (flip-chip BGA, ~35 × 35 mm), commercial temperature range (0°C to +85°C junction)
- -1 speed grade — offers balanced timing performance and closure headroom while keeping power draw reasonable for many DSP/SerDes-focused designs
The SXT series is all about DSP acceleration plus fast transceivers — it prioritizes those DSP48E blocks and GTX ports over embedded processors (no PowerPC here; save that for FXT) or maximum plain logic density (that’s more LX/LXT territory).
