Timing
Timing Example 1 tOUT tIN tPDI + tLOGI tPD = tIN + tPDI + tLOGI + tOUT Function Block tOUT tIN tPDI + tLOGI tPD = tIN + tPDI + tLOGI + tOUT
Timing Example 2 tIN tPTA A tOUT B tLOGI + tPDI Function Block A tPTA tOUT B tLOGI + tPDI t A-> B = tIN + tPTA + tLOGI + tPDI + tOUT
Timing Example 3 tGCK tHI tSUI tSU = tIN + tLOGI + tSUI - tGCK Q D/T tGCK tHI tSUI GCK tSU = tIN + tLOGI + tSUI - tGCK tCO = tGCK + tCOI + tOUT tH = tGCK + tHI - tIN - tLOGI
ISP Original XC9500 JTAG and ISP instructions New instruction: CLAMP permits pin by pin definition of logic level Added S/W support with XACT M1.5 Same third party and ATE support package as XC9500 CPLDs (HP, GenRAD, Teradyne)
Voltage Compatibility VCCINT = 3.3V VCCIO = 3.3V/2.5V CORE LOGIC Note: output p-channel gives full rail swing
Voltage Compatibility 3.3V/5V VCCIO VCCINT 5V 3.3V Any Any XC9500XL 3.3V 5V TTL 3.3V 3.3V device device
Voltage Compatibility 3.3V/2.5V VCCIO VCCINT 3.3V 2.5V Any Any 3.3V XC9500XL 2.5V 2.5V 2.5V device device
