Key revisions in DS123, Platform Flash In-System Programmable Configuration PROMs data sheet, v2.17:
Removed empty placeholders for XCFxxP VCCO AC/DC Characteristics at 1.5V operation. Although
the product plans included extension of the VCCO operation down to 1.5V, the characteristics of
XCFxxP VCCO operation at 1.5V were never specified and the empty specification placeholders have
been removed along with all references to XCFxxP VCCO ope ration at 1.5V.
Moved product user guidance table of “Xilinx FPGAs and Compatible Platform Flash PROMs” from
the DS123 data sheet to the UG161 use r guide.
Removed “PROM to FPGA Configuration Mode and Connections Summary” section that was a
redundant and less complete form of the information contained in the UG161 user guide and the
FPGA configuration user guides.
Removed “Configuration PROM-to-FPGA Device Interface Connection Diagrams” that were a
redundant and a less com plete set of reference schematics contai ned in the UG161 user guide.
Key revisions in UG161, Platform Flash PROM User Guide, v1.5:
Removed references to the never-specified XCFxxP VCCO operation at 1.5V. See the “Removed
empty placeholders for XCFxxP VCCO AC/DC Characteristics at 1.5V operation” item in the DS123
data sheet revision list, above.
Added product user guidance table of “Xilinx FPGAs and Compatible Platform Flash PROMs” that
was moved from the DS123 data sheet to the UG1 61 user guide.
Added Spartan-6 and Virtex-6 FPGAs to the table of “Xilinx FPGAs and Compatible Platform Flash
PROMs”.
Replaced example third-party voltage regulator part number with reference to Xilinx Power Solutions
website (http://www.xilinx.com/power) for access to a wider range of applicable voltage regulator
solutions.
Updated software flows to ISE® software 11.x.
