SP605 Evaluation Board
I/O Voltage Rails
There are four available banks on the XC6SLX45T-3FGG484 device. Banks 0, 1, and 2 are
connected for 2.5V I/O. Bank 3 is used for the 1.5V DDR3 component memory interface of
Spartan-6 FPGA’s hard memory controller. The voltage applied to the FPGA I/O banks
used by the SP605 board is summarized in
.

Component Memory
The SP605 128 MB 16-bit wide DDR3 memory consists of a single 1 Gb x 16 SDRAM U42
wired to Bank 3 (V
cco
= 1.5V) of the U1 XC6SLX45T FPGA. The Spartan-6 FPGA hard
memory controller is used for data transfer across the DDR3 memory interface’s 16-bit
data path using SSTL15 signaling.
•
Manufacturer: Micron
•
Part Number: MT41J64M16LA-187E
•
Description:
•
1 Gb: 128 MB (64 Mb x 16)
•
1.5V 96-ball FBGA
•
Performance: up to DDR3-1066
The SP605 board supports the “standard” VCCINT setting of 1.20V ± 5%. This setting
provides memory controller block (MCB) performance of 667 MT/s for DDR3 memory.
The SP605 XC6SLX45T FPGA DDR interface performance is documented in the
Spartan-6
FPGA Data Sheet: DC and Switching Characteristics
(DS162).
Signal integrity is maintained through DDR3 resistor terminations and memory on-die
terminations (ODT), as shown in
and
