Virtex-4 FPGA Electrical Characteristics
Virtex?-4 FPGAs are available in -12, -11, and -10 speedgrades, with -12 having the highest performance.
Virtex-4 FPGA DC and AC characteristics are specified forboth commercial and industrial grades. Except the operat-ing temperature range or unless otherwise noted, all the DCand AC electrical parameters are the same for a particularspeed grade (that is, the timing characteristics of a -10speed grade industrial device are the same as for a -10speed grade commercial device). However, only selectedspeed grades and/or devices might be available in theindustrial range.
All supply voltage and junction temperature specificationsare representative of worst-case conditions. The parame-ters included are common to popular designs and typicalapplications.

Notes:
1.For boundary frequencies, choose the higher delay.
2.DLL Outputs are used in these instances to describe the outputs: CLK0, CLK90, CLK180, CLK270, CLK2X, CLK2X180, and CLKDV.3.DFS Outputs are used in these instances to describe the outputs: CLKFX and CLKFX180.4.CLKIN must be present and stable during the DCM_RESET.
5.This only applies to production step 1 LX and SX devices. For these devices, use the design solutions described in Answer Record 21127 for support
of longer reset durations. Production step 2 LX and SX devices and all production FX devices do not have this requirement.
6.For production step 1 LX and SX devices, use the design solutions described in Answer Record 21127 for support of longer durations of stopped
clocks. For production step 2 LX and SX devices and all production FX devices, the ISE software automatically inserts a small macro to supportlonger durations of stopped clocks.
7.For all stepping levels, once the input clock is toggling again and stable after being stopped, DCM must be reset.
