Table 4-2 lists the 12 different power planes on the Virtex-5 FPGA ML561 Development
Board. For the SSTL2, SSTL18, and HSTL power, separate power modules are
implemented for V
CCO
to FPGA, and V
DD
to memory, allowing for ease of power
measurement for the FPGAs. The power modules for V
CCO
inputs are implemented with
TI PTH05010 modules, which have provisions for ± 5% voltage margining pins.
Each of the three Fairchild FN6555 Bus Terminator Regulators has two voltage outputs:
one each for V
REF
and V
TT
. The FN6555 regulator is a push-pull device rated at ± 3A for the
V
TT
output and 3 mA for the V
REF
output.
Because the V
REF
voltage is used by the FPGA and memory devices only as reference, the
power supply does not source any real current. Thus the 3 mA capacity for the V
REF
output
is considered sufficient.
The V
TT
voltage is guaranteed to within ± 20 mV of the V
REF
output by the FN6555
regulator. The minimum driver output voltage swing around V
REF
is specified for the
SSTL18, SSTL2, and HSTL I/O standards as:
• SSTL2: ± 608 mV
• SSTL18: ± 603 mV
• HSTL: ± 500 mV (for HSTL18)
For a given memory interface, the maximum number of single-ended (non-differential)
signals that might need to be pulled up or down at a time for QDRII is 144 data bits and
approximately 30 address and control signals. The differential pair signals offset for the
sink and source of current. With a continuous current capacity of 3A for the FN6555
regulator, the regulator can supply up to (3000 / 175) = 17 mA of current per signal. The
maximum drive strength for a driver is specified at 16 mA. For a 50
Ω V
TT
termination, this
