Xilinx XC6SLX75T Speedy Configuration
The LXT category of Spartan-6 FPGA is prioritized for high-speed serial connectivity. This explains the reason why the devices here are optimized for a wide range of speedy applications.
Logic Resources Abundance
The Xilinx XC6SLX75T also has one of the highest concentrations of logic resources, including components.
Here is a breakdown of the different logic resources you can find on the board.
Lookup Tables
The board comes with a Lookup Table (LUT) that has dual flip-flops. These flip-flops are utilized when making prototypes of pipeline-centric applications.
Memory Distribution
The Xilinx XC6SLX75T FPGA is also equipped with the optional shift register or the distributed Random-Access Memory (RAM). This particular function makes it possible for the registers to be distributed across a wide range of applications.
Power Balance
Xilinx XC6SLX75T’s efficient 6-input Lookup Table (LUT) also comes in handy in making it possible to improve the overall performance of the device, while cutting down on power/heat dissipation.
Low-Cost Optimization
The Xilinx XC6SLX75T FPGA offers a balance between power and cost, ensuring that you get value for money even for the tiniest of functions and components.
Wondering how the device is able to save these costs? Here are the cost-optimization functions:
1. Space-Saving Design
The device saves space, thereby, cutting down on the use of excessive materials that would increase the overall cost of the board.
The space-saving function used here is the use of a set of high-volume plastic wire-bonded packages.
To further compress space, the device also uses several efficient integrated blocks to reduce the dependency on external components.
It also uses staggered pads and an optimized selection of Input and Output (I/O) standards for the board’s configurations.
2. Efficient DSP Slices
The device also uses a range of efficient DSP slices that bolster its speedy configuration. The DSP48A1 Slices are the primary DSP Slices used here.
These are some of the DSP Slices’ attributes:
Pre-Adder
The pre-adder is used to assist the filter applications designed with the Xilinx XC6SLX75T FPGA.
Signal Processing Slices
The device also uses the high-performance arithmetic and signal processing DSP Slices to improve the speed of the board.
