Virtex-6 FPGA Electrical Characteristics
Virtex®-6 FPGAs are available in -3, -2, -1, and -1L speed grades, with -3 having the highest performance. Virtex-6 FPGA
DC and AC characteristics are specified in commercial, extended, industrial, and military temperature ranges. Unless noted,
the Virtex-6Q FPGA DC and AC characteristics are equivalent to the commercial specifications. Except for the operating
temperature range or unless otherwise noted, all the DC and AC electrical parameters are the same for a particular speed
grade (that is, the timing characteristics of a -1 speed grade industrial device are the same as for a -1 speed grade
commercial device). However, only selected speed grades and/or devices are available in the extended, industrial, or military
temperature ranges.
All supply voltage and junction temperature specifications are representative of worst-case conditions. The parameters
included are common to popular designs and typical applications.

Important Note
Typical values for quiescent supply current are specified at nominal voltage, 85°C junction temperatures (Tj). Xilinx
recommends analyzing static power consumption at Tj= 85°C because the majority of designs operate near the high end of
the commercial temperature range. Quiescent supply current is specified by speed grade for Virtex-6 devices. Use the
XPower™ Estimator (XPE) spreadsheet tool (download at http://www.xilinx.com/power) to calculate static power
consumption for conditions other than those specified in Ta bl e 4 .

Notes:
1. Typical values are specified at nominal voltage, 85°C junction temperatures (Tj). -1 and -2 industrial (I) grade devices have the same typical
values as commercial (C) grade devices at 85°C, but higher values at 100°C. Use the XPE tool to calculate 100°C values. -1L industrial
temperature range devices have the values specified in this column.
2. Use the XPE tool to calculate 125°C values for -1M temperature range devices.
3. The -2E extended temperature range (Tj= 0°C to +100°C) is only available in these devices. The -2I temperature range (Tj= 40°C to
+100°C) is available for all other devices except the XC6VHX565T.
4. The XC6VHX380T is available with both -2E and -2I temperature ranges.
5. The XC6VHX565T is only available in the following temperature ranges: -1C, -1I, and -2C.
6. The XQ6VLX130T, XQ6VLX240T, and XQ6VSX315T are available in -2I, -1I, -1M, and -1LI temperature ranges.
7. The XQ6VLX550T and the XQ6VSX475T are only available in -1I and -1LI temperature ranges.
8. Typical values are for blank configured devices with no output current loads, no active input pull-up resistors, all I/O pins are 3-state and
floating.
9. If DCI or differential signaling is used, more accurate quiescent current estimates can be obtained by using the XPE or XPower Analyzer
(XPA) tools.

Product Specification 7
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 sequence and ramp rate of the power supply.
The recommended power-on sequence for Virtex-6 devices is VCCINT
, VCCAUX, and VCCO to meet the power-up current
requirements listed in Ta ble 5. VCCINT can be powered up or down at any time, but power up current specifications can vary
from Ta b l e 5 . The device will have no physical damage or reliability concerns if VCCINT
, VCCAUX, and VCCO sequence cannot
be followed.
If the recommended power-up sequence cannot be followed and the I/Os must remain 3-stated throughout configuration,
then VCCAUX must be powered prior to VCCO or VCCAUX and VCCO must be powered by the same supply. Similarly, for power-
down, the reverse VCCAUX and VCCO sequence is recommended if the I/Os are to remain 3-stated.
The GTH transceiver supplies must be powered using a MGTHAVCC, MGTHAVCCRX, MGTHAVCCPLL, and MGTHAVTT
sequence. There are no sequencing requirement for these supplies with respect to the other FPGA supply voltages. For
more detail see Ta bl e 2 7 : GTH Transceiver Power Supply Sequencing. There are no sequencing requirements for the GTX
transceivers power supplies.
Ta bl e 5 shows the minimum current, in addition to ICCQ, that are required by Virtex-6 devices for proper power-on and
configuration. If the current minimums shown in Ta bl e 4 and Ta b l e 5 are met, the device powers on after all three supplies
have passed through their power-on reset threshold voltages. The FPGA must be configured after applying VCCINT
, VCCAUX,
and VCCO for the appropriate configuration banks. Once initialized and configured, use the XPE tools to estimate current
drain on these supplies.

Switching Characteristics
All values represented in this data sheet are based on these
speed specifications: v1.17 for -3, -2, and -1; and v1.10 for
-1L. Switching characteristics are specified on a per-speed-
grade basis and can be designated as Advance,
Preliminary, or Production. Each designation is defined as
follows:
Advance
These specifications are based on simulations only and are
typically available soon after device design specifications
are frozen. Although speed grades with this designation are
considered relatively stable and conservative, some under-
reporting might still occur.
Preliminary
These specifications are based on complete ES
(engineering sample) silicon characterization. Devices and
speed grades with this designation are intended to give a
better indication of the expected performance of production
silicon. The probability of under-reporting delays is greatly
reduced as compared to Advance data.
Production
These specifications are released once enough production
silicon of a particular device family member has been
characterized to provide full correlation between
specifications and devices over numerous production lots.
There is no under-reporting of delays, and customers
receive formal notification of any subsequent changes.
Typically, the slowest speed grades transition to Production
before faster speed grades.
All specifications are always representative of worst-case
supply voltage and junction temperature conditions.
Since individual family members are produced at different
times, the migration from one category to another depends
completely on the status of the fabrication process for each
device.
Ta b le 4 2 correlates the current status of each Virtex-6
device on a per speed grade basis.
Testing of Switching Characteristics
All devices are 100% functionally tested. Internal timing parameters are derived from measuring internal test patterns. Listed
below are representative values.
For more specific, more precise, and worst-case guaranteed data, use the values reported by the static timing analyzer and
back-annotate to the simulation net list. Unless otherwise noted, values apply to all Virtex-6 devices.

measurement methodology parameters for HSLVDCI are the same as for HSTL_II standards of the same voltage. Parameters for all other
DCI standards are the same for the corresponding non-DCI standards.
2. Input waveform switches between VLand VH.
3. Measurements are made at typical, minimum, and maximum VREF values. Reported delays reflect worst case of these measurements. VREF
values listed are typical.
4. Input voltage level from which measurement starts.
5. This is an input voltage reference that bears no relation to the VREF / VMEAS parameters found in IBIS models and/or noted in Figure 6.
6. The value given is the differential input voltage.

Output Delay Measurements
Output delays are measured using a Tektronix P6245
TDS500/600 probe (< 1 pF) across approximately 4" of FR4
microstrip trace. Standard termination was used for all
testing. The propagation delay of the 4" trace is
characterized separately and subtracted from the final
measurement, and is therefore not included in the
generalized test setups shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7.
Measurements and test conditions are reflected in the IBIS
models except where the IBIS format precludes it.
Parameters VREF, RREF, CREF, and VMEAS fully describe
the test conditions for each I/O standard. The most accurate
prediction of propagation delay in any given application can
be obtained through IBIS simulation, using the following
method:
1. Simulate the output driver of choice into the generalized
test setup, using values from Ta b l e 4 8 .
2. Record the time to VMEAS.
3. Simulate the output driver of choice into the actual PCB
trace and load, using the appropriate IBIS model or
capacitance value to represent the load.
4. Record the time to VMEAS.
5. Compare the results of steps 2 and 4. The increase or
decrease in delay yields the actual propagation delay of
the PCB trace.

Notes:
1. TRACE will report all of these parameters as TRCKO_DO.
2. TRCKO_DOR includes TRCKO_DOW, TRCKO_DOPR, and TRCKO_DOPW as well as the B port equivalent timing parameters.
3. These parameters also apply to synchronous FIFO with DO_REG = 0.
4. TRCKO_DO includes TRCKO_DOP as well as the B port equivalent timing parameters.
5. These parameters also apply to multirate (asynchronous) and synchronous FIFO with DO_REG = 1.
6. TRCKO_FLAGS includes the following parameters: TRCKO_AEMPTY
, TRCKO_AFULL, TRCKO_EMPTY
, TRCKO_FULL, TRCKO_RDERR, TRCKO_WRERR.
7. TRCKO_POINTERS includes both TRCKO_RDCOUNT and TRCKO_WRCOUNT.
8. The ADDR setup and hold must be met when EN is asserted (even when WE is deasserted). Otherwise, block RAM data corruption is
possible.
9. TRCKO_DI includes both A and B inputs as well as the parity inputs of A and B.
10. TRCO_FLAGS includes the following flags: AEMPTY, AFULL, EMPTY, FULL, RDERR, WRERR, RDCOUNT, and WRCOUNT.
11. The FIFO reset must be asserted for at least three positive clock edges.
12. When using ISE software v12.4 or later, if the RDADDR_COLLISION_HWCONFIG attribute is set to PERFORMANCE or the block RAM is
in single-port operation, then the faster FMAX for WRITE_FIRST/NO_CHANGE modes apply.

Notes:
1. TBCCCK_CE and TBCCKC_CE must be satisfied to assure glitch-free operation of the global clock when switching between clocks. These
parameters do not apply to the BUFGMUX_VIRTEX4 primitive that assures glitch-free operation. The other global clock setup and hold
times are optional; only needing to be satisfied if device operation requires simulation matches on a cycle-for-cycle basis when switching
between clocks.
2. TBGCKO_O (BUFG delay from I0 to O) values are the same as TBCCKO_O values.

Notes:
1. When DIVCLK_DIVIDE = 3 or 4, FINMAX is 315 MHz.
2. This duty cycle specification does not apply to the GTH_QUAD (GTH) to MMCM connection. The GTH transceivers drive the MMCMs at the
following maximum frequencies: 323 MHz for -1 speed grade devices, 350 MHz for -2 speed grade devices, or 350 MHz for -3 speed grade
devices.
3. The MMCM does not filter typical spread-spectrum input clocks because they are usually far below the bandwidth filter frequencies.
4. The static offset is measured between any MMCM outputs with identical phase.
5. Values for this parameter are available in the Clocking Wizard.
See http://www.xilinx.com/products/intellectual-property/clocking_wizard.htm.
6. Includes global clock buffer.
7. Calculated as FVCO/128 assuming output duty cycle is 50%.
8. When CASCADE4_OUT = TRUE, FOUTMIN is 0.036 MHz.
9. In ISE software 12.3 (or earlier versions supporting the Virtex-6 family), the phase frequency detector Optimized bandwidth setting is
equivalent to the High bandwidth setting. Starting with ISE software 12.4, the Optimized bandwidth setting is automatically adjusted to Low
when the software can determine that the phase frequency detector input is less than 135 MHz.

Clock input signal using the fastest process, lowest temperature, and highest voltage.
2. IFF = Input Flip-Flop or Latch
3. A Zero "0" Hold Time listing indicates no hold time or a negative hold time. Negative values can not be guaranteed "best-case", but if a "0"
is listed, there is no positive hold time.

Notes:
1. Setup and Hold times are measured over worst case conditions (process, voltage, temperature). Setup time is measured relative to the
Global Clock input signal using the slowest process, highest temperature, and lowest voltage. Hold time is measured relative to the Global
Clock input signal using the fastest process, lowest temperature, and highest voltage.
2. IFF = Input Flip-Flop or Latch
3. Use IBIS to determine any duty-cycle distortion incurred using various standards.

Notes:
1. These parameters represent the worst-case duty cycle distortion observable at the pins of the device using LVDS output buffers. For cases
where other I/O standards are used, IBIS can be used to calculate any additional duty cycle distortion that might be caused by asymmetrical
rise/fall times.
2. The TCKSKEW value represents the worst-case clock-tree skew observable between sequential I/O elements. Significantly less clock-tree
skew exists for I/O registers that are close to each other and fed by the same or adjacent clock-tree branches. Use the Xilinx FPGA_Editor
and Timing Analyzer tools to evaluate clock skew specific to your application.
