The XC18V02PCG44C is a 2 Mbit in-system programmable configuration PROM (programmable read-only memory) from Xilinx. It is designed to store configuration data for Xilinx FPGAs (field-programmable gate arrays). When an FPGA powers up, it loads its configuration data from this PROM, allowing the FPGA to function according to its programmed design.

Applications

• Configuration storage for Xilinx FPGAs
• Boot loaders for embedded systems
• Data storage for non-volatile applications

Features

• 2 Mbit storage capacity
• In-system programmable
• Fast access time
• Low power consumption
• 3.3V power supply
• 44-pin PLCC package
• RoHS compliant

Benefits

• FPGA Configuration: Stores the configuration bitstream for Xilinx FPGAs, enabling them to operate according to the user's design.
• In-System Programmability: Allows for easy updates to the FPGA configuration without removing the PROM from the circuit board.
• Fast Configuration: Provides quick access to the configuration data, minimizing FPGA startup time.
• Low Power Consumption: Reduces overall system power consumption.
• Reliable Storage: Provides non-volatile storage for configuration data, ensuring that the FPGA retains its functionality even after power loss.

Additional Details

The XC18V02PCG44C is programmed via a JTAG interface. It operates from a 3.3V power supply. The device provides a reliable and cost-effective solution for FPGA configuration. The PROM ensures the FPGA configures correctly upon startup. Due to its non-volatility, the FPGA will retain configuration even when power is removed and reapplied. The package is a 44-pin PLCC (Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier).
