Description
Xilinx introduces the high-density QPro™ XQR17V16
series Radiation Hardened QML configuration PROM which
provide an easy-to-use, cost-effective method for storing
large Xilinx FPGA configuration bitstreams. The XQR17V16
is a 3.3V device with a storage capacity of 16 Mb and can
operate in either a serial or byte wide m ode. See Figure 1
for a simplified block diagram of the XQR17V16 device
architecture.
When the FPGA is in Master Serial mode, it generates a
configuration clock that drives the PROM. A short access
time after the rising clock edge, data appears on the PROM
DAT A output pin that is connected to the FPGA DIN pin. The
FPGA gener at es the app ro priat e number of cloc k pu ls es to
complete the configuration. Once configured, it disables the
PROM. When the FPGA is in Slave Serial mode, the PROM
and the FPGA must both be clocked by an incoming signal.
When the FPGA is in Master SelectMAP mode, it generates
a configur ation clock that drives the PR OM and the FPGA .
After the rising CCLK edge, data are available on the
PROMs DATA (D0-D7) pins. The data will be clocked into
the FPGA on the fol lowing rising edge of the CCLK. When
the FPGA is i n S lave Sel ec tMAP mode, th e P RO M an d th e
FPGA must both be clocked by an incoming signal. A
free-running oscillator may be used to drive CCLK. See
Figure 2.
Multiple devices can be concatenated by using the CEO
output to drive the CE input of the following device. The
clock inputs and the DATA outputs of all PROMs in this
chain are interconnected. All devices are compatible and
can be cascaded with other members of the family.
For device programming, either the Xilinx Alliance or Foun-
dation series development system compiles the FPGA
design file into a standard Hex format, which i s then tran s-
ferred to most commercial PROM programmers.

Pin Description
DATA[0:7]
Data output is in a high-impedance state when either CE or
OE are inactive. During programming, the D0 pin is I/O.
Note that OE can be programmed to be either active High or
active Low.
CLK
Each rising edge on the CLK input increments the internal
address counter, if both CE and OE are active.
RESET/OE
When High, th is input holds the add ress counte r reset an d
puts the DATA output in a high-impedance state. The polar-
ity of this input pin is programmable as either RESET/OE or
OE/RESET. To avoid confusion, this document describes
the pin as RESET/OE, although the opposite polarity is pos-
sible on all devices. When RESET is active, the address
counter is held at “0”, and puts the DATA output in a
high-im ped anc e state. The polar ity of this in put is prog ra m-
mable. T he default is activ e Hi gh RE SET , bu t the preferre d
option is active Low RESET, because it can connected to
the FPGAs INIT pin and a pullup resistor.
The polarity of this pin is controlled in the programmer inter-
face. This input pin is easily inverted using the Xilinx
HW-130 Programmer. Third-party programmers have differ-
ent methods to invert this pin.
CE
When High, this pin disables the internal address counter,
puts the DAT A output in a high-impedance state, and forces
the device into low-ICC standby mode.
CEO
Chip Enab le outp ut, to be conn ected t o the CE input of the
next PROM in the daisy chain. This output is Low when the
CE and OE inputs are both active AND the internal address
counter has been incremented beyond its Terminal Count
(TC) value. In other words: when the PROM has been read,
CEO will follow CE as long as OE is active. When OE goes
inactive, CEO stays Hi gh un t i l the PROM is re set. No te t hat
OE can be programmed to be either active High or active
Low.

BUSY (XQR17V16 only)
If BUSY pin is floating, the user must program the BUSY bit
which will cause BUSY pin to be internally tied to a
pull-down resistor. When asserted High, output data are
held and when BUSY pin goes Low, data output will
resume.
VPP
Programming voltage. No overshoot above the specified
max vo ltag e is p er mit ted on thi s pi n. Fo r n or mal re a d o per-
ation, this pin must be connected to VCC. Failure to do so
may lead to unpredictable, temperature-dependent opera-
tion and severe problems in circuit debugging. Do not leave
VPP floating!

Capacity
Controlling PROMs
Connecting the FPGA device with the PROM.
The DATA output(s) of the PROM(s) drives the DIN
input of the lead FPGA device.
The Master FPGA CCLK output drives the CLK input(s)
of the PROM(s).
The CEO output of a PROM drives the CE input of the
next PROM in a daisy chain (if any).
The RESET/OE input of all PROMs is best driven by
the INIT output of the lead FPGA device. This
connect ion assure s that the PROM address coun ter is
reset before the start of any (re)configuration, even
when a reconfiguration is initiated by a VCC glitc h.
The PROM CE input is best connected to the FPGA
DONE pin(s) and a pullup resistor. CE can also be
permanently tied Low, but this keeps the DATA output
active and causes an unnecessary supply current of
15 mA maximum.
SelectMAP mode is similar to Slave Serial mode. The
DATA is clocked out of the PROM one byte per CCLK
instead of one bit per CCLK cycle. See FPGA data
sheets for special configuration requirements.
FPGA Master Serial Mode Summary
The I/O and log ic fun ct ion s o f the Con fig ur abl e Lo gi c B lo ck
(CLB) and their associated interconnections are estab-
lished by a configuration program. The program is loaded
either automatically upon power up, or on command,
depending on the state of the three FPGA mode pins. In
Master Serial mode, the FPGA automatically loads the con-
figuration program from an external memory. The Xilinx
PROMs have been designed for compatibility with the Mas-
ter Serial mode.
Upon power-up or reconfiguration, an FPGA enters the
Master Serial mode whenever all three of the FPGA

mode-select pins are Low (M0=0, M1=0, M2=0). Data is
read from the PROM sequentially on a single data line. Syn-
chronization is provided by the rising edge of the temporary
signal CCLK, which is generated during configuration.
Master Serial Mode provides a simple configuration inter-
face. Only a serial data line, two control lines, and a clock
line are required to configure an FPGA. Data from the
PROM is read sequentially, accessed via the internal
address and bit counters which are incremented on every
valid rising edge of CCLK.
If the user-programmable, dual-function DIN pin on the
FPGA is used only for configuration, it must still be held at a
defined level during normal operation. The Xilinx FPGA
families take care of this automatically with an on-chip
default pull-up/down resistor or keeper circuit.
Cascading Configuration PROMs
For multiple FPGAs configured as a daisy-chain, or for
future FPGAs requiring larger configuration memories, cas-
caded P ROM s prov id e ad di tion al me mory . A fter th e l as t bi t
from the first PROM is read, the next clock signal to the
PROM asserts its CEO output Low and disables its DATA
line. The second PROM recognizes the Low level on its CE
input and enables its DATA output. See Figure 2.
After c onfiguration is complete, th e address counters of all
cascaded PROMs are reset if the FPGA PROGRAM pin
goes Low, assuming the PROM reset polarity option has
been inverted.

Standby Mode
The PROM enters a low-power standby mode whenever
CE is asserted High. The output remains in a high imped-
ance state regardless of the state of the OE inp ut.
Programming
The devices can be programmed on programmers supplied
by Xilinx or qualified third-party vendors. The user must
ensure that the appropriate programming algorithm and the
latest version of the programmer software are used. The
wrong choice can permanently damage the device.
