following sections:

• “About the Virtex-5 FPGA ML561 Memory Interfaces Tool Kit”

• “Virtex-5 FPGA ML561 Memory Interfaces Development Board”

About the Virtex-5 FPGA ML561 Memory Interfaces Tool Kit

The Virtex-5 FPGA ML561 Memory Interfaces Tool Kit provides a complete development

platform to interface with external memory devices for designing and verifying

applications based on the Virtex-5 LXT FPGA platform. This kit allows designers to

implement high-speed applications with extreme flexibility using IP cores and customized

modules. The Virtex-5 LXT FPGA, with its column-based architecture, makes it possible to

develop highly flexible memory interface applications.

The Virtex-5 FPGA ML561 Memory Interfaces Tool Kit includes the following:

• Virtex-5 FPGA ML561 Memory Interfaces Development Board (XC5VLX50T-FFG1136

FPGA)

• 5V/6.5 A DC power supply

• Country-specific power supply line cord

• RS-232 serial cable, DB9-F to DB9-F

• Documentation and reference design CD-ROM

Optional items that also support development efforts include:

• Xilinx

ISE

software

• JTAG cable

• Xilinx Parallel IV cable

For assistance with any of these items, contact your local Xilinx distributor or visit the

Xilinx online store at www.xilinx.com

The heart of the Virtex-5 FPGA ML561 Memory Interfaces Tool Kit is the Virtex-5 FPGA

ML561 Development Board. This manual provides comprehensive information on Rev A3

and later revisions of this board.
