Xilinx Configuration Device - Accessing Configuration Device Information
To access information for a physical device, from the Devices view choose the Browse Physical Devices command from the main Tools menu. The Browse Physical Devices dialog will appear, as illustrated in Figure 1.
With the Vendors region of the dialog set to Xilinx
, use the FPGA Families region to choose the required configuration device family – XC18V00
or XCF
. The main region of the dialog will change to show all devices in the chosen family, with all supported devices represented by an 'X' entry.
Note: Information for the non-JTAG-compliant XC17V00
family of configuration devices is not available from the dialog. Information is also not available for the following JTAG-compliant devices: XC18V256
, XCF08P
, XCF16P
and XCF32P
.
The dialog will provide information on a chosen (and supported) device, including schematic symbol, PCB footprint and 3D model representations, where available. For further, detailed information with respect to any of the supported Xilinx configuration devices, consult the relevant Configuration PROM Data Sheet, available on the Xilinx website.
