XC5VLX30-1FF324I - 30,720-Cell Virtex-5 LX FPGA | AMD
The AMD XC5VLX30-1FF324I is a Virtex-5 LX field-programmable gate array with 30,720 configurable logic cells, 220 I/O, and a 324-ball FCBGA package. It is a -1 speed-grade device with an industrial-temperature ordering suffix, designed for programmable digital logic, signal processing, interface bridging, communications, and embedded control systems. The device provides 1,179,648 FPGA gates, as identified in the product listing, while its architecture integrates programmable logic, block RAM, dedicated input/output resources, and configurable interconnect resources into one reconfigurable semiconductor package.
A field-programmable gate array, or FPGA, is a digital integrated circuit whose logic, memory, and I/O behavior is defined after fabrication. An FPGA belongs to the broader programmable-logic hierarchy, which includes complex programmable logic devices and other reconfigurable digital semiconductors. Compared with a fixed-function application-specific integrated circuit, an FPGA allows parallel processing, hardware customization, in-system updates, and shorter development cycles for algorithms that benefit from simultaneous operations.
The XC5VLX30 combines a 30,720-cell Virtex-5 LX implementation with 220 I/O in a compact 324-ball FCBGA package. The 220-I/O interface supports external memory, data converters, network transceivers, clock sources, and parallel peripherals, although final signal counts depend on the selected pin assignments and device constraints. Its substantial programmable logic fabric is useful for protocol handling, packet processing, filter implementations, finite-state-machine control, and custom datapaths.
The “-1” portion identifies the device speed grade, while the “I” suffix denotes the industrial temperature option. These ordering details are important because the device is not simply interchangeable with every Virtex-5 LX configuration. A replacement must match the XC5VLX30 resource count, 324-ball footprint, pin assignment, speed grade, temperature range, voltage requirements, configuration interface, and any legacy or production requirements applicable to the original design.
Typical uses include industrial networking equipment, test and measurement systems, video processing, communications infrastructure, embedded instrumentation, and high-speed control logic. In these systems, the FPGA can execute multiple parallel channels, maintain precise timing, or implement custom protocols while reducing reliance on external programmable devices.
PCB implementation requires careful attention to power integrity, decoupling, clock routing, differential-pair geometry, and thermal performance of the large FCBGA package. Use the pinout and board-layout guidance in the manufacturer documentation, preserve the required power and ground planes, and validate signal-integrity and power-delivery margins before releasing the PCB.
This page organizes the exact catalog identifiers, package information, sourcing details, technical comparisons, and practical replacement considerations for engineers evaluating the XC5VLX30-1FF324I in new or existing Virtex-5 LX designs.
